Find the Limit of a Sequence.
Answer to Problem 87RE
Limit of the sequence is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
write the first five terms of the sequence and find the limit of the sequence (if it exists). If the limit does not exist, then explain why. Assume
Calculation:
Consider the sequence,
Now the first five terms of the sequence is,
Find the limit of the sequence, if it exists.
For the rational number,
Where,
The limit as
The limit does not exist if
Here the degree of numerator and denominator is equal, so the limit of the function is ratio of the coefficients.
Hence limit of the sequence is
