Sequence Definition and 1000 Threads

I will create my own example on this- Phew atleast this concepts are becoming clearer ; your indulgence is welcome. Let me have a sequence given as, ##Un = \dfrac {7n-1}{9n+2}## ##Lim_{n→∞} \left[\dfrac {7n-1}{9n+2}\right] = \dfrac {7}{9} ## Now, ##\left[ \dfrac {7n-1}{9n+2} - \dfrac {7}{9}...

I posted this to clarify on the highlighted part- english problem for me. First less than -200 means what? Otherwise, the steps to solution are clear... cheers

In the photos are two proof questions requiring proving convergence of sequence from convergent subsequences. Are my proofs for these two questions correct? Note in the first question I have already proved that f_n_k is both monotone and bounded Thanks a lot in advance!

Did some calculations and with 3×-1 i Always get 5.is this correct?

these are a pattern of number sequence asked in assessment for new employee , what could be the missed number 9 1 6 4 4 5 7 2 5 8 8 5 1 3 5 X is says the equation could be limited to (addition, subtraction, division and multiplying)

In attempting to finish the sequence, I realized that the triangles in the inner hexagon is decolored in the direction of the arrow I drew for the given elements of the sequence. Any tips on how to think systematically about similar problems since I am required in the exam to complete like...

I would like to know if my answer is correct and if no ,could you correct.But it should be right I hope:

##a_n= \left[\dfrac {\ln (n)^2}{n}\right]## We may consider a function of a real variable. This is my approach; ##f(x) =\left[\dfrac {\ln (x)^2}{x}\right]## Applying L'Hopital's rule we shall have; ##\displaystyle\lim_ {x\to\infty} \left[\dfrac {\ln (x)^2}{x}\right]=\lim_ {x\to\infty}\left[...

So far this is what I have. Proof: Let p1, p2, p3 be a non-decreasing sequence. Assume that not all points of the sequence p1,p2,p3,... are equal. If the sequence p1,p2,p3,... converges to x then for every open interval S containing x there is a positive integer N s.t. if n is a positive integer...

Question: There is a function ##f##, it is given that for every monotonic sequence ##(x_n) \to x_0##, where ##x_n, x_0 \in dom(f)##, implies ##f(x_n) \to f(x_0)##. Prove that ##f## is continuous at ##x_0## Proof: Assume that ##f## is discontinuous at ##x_0##. That means for any sequence...

Has this expanded Collatz sequence been explored previously?

Maybe this is not a well made question, but how or in what ways are the Setter dog breeds related to the Predatory Sequence? What parts of the sequence are expressed and what parts are inhibited? Interested readers who might not be much aware of the Predatory Sequence can do some simple...

Youtuber Kyle Hill has created a great sequence of videos on nuclear disasters around the world: They include: - THERAC-25 Medical Device disaster where cancer outpatients received doses many times greater than what the doctors prescribed - The Demon Core: fissile material that scientists...

Let's say we're given a sequence ##(s_n)## such that ##\lim s_n = s##. We have to prove that all subsequences of it converges to the same limit ##s##. Here is the standard proof: Given ##\epsilon \gt 0## there exists an ##N## such that $$ k \gt N \implies |s_k - s| \lt \varepsilon$$ Consider...

Let ##S=\{s_n:n∈N\}##. ##\sup S## is the least upper bound of S. For any ϵ>0, we have an m such that ##\sup S−\epsilon \lt s_m## ##\sup S−s_m \lt \varepsilon## ##|\sup S−s_m| \lt \varepsilon## I mean to say that, no matter how small ϵ is, there is always an element of S whose distance from supS...

My attempt: It can be proved that ##\lim \frac{1}{2^n} = 0##. Consider, ##\frac{\varepsilon}{k} \gt 0##, there exists ##N##, such that $$ n \gt N \implies \frac{1}{2^n} \lt \varepsilon $$ Take any ##m,n \gt N##, and such that ##m - k = n##. ##|s_m - s_{m-1} | \lt \frac{1}{2^{m-1}} \lt...

This question is related to Shor's algorithm and its use of modular exponentiation. In the table below, the period of the sequence in the third column is obviously equal to 4. That is, its value repeats every fourth row. What I am trying to find out is why it is that when the first value in...

Hey! 😊 I want to write a one-line Python generator or iterator expression that returns the sequence of integers generated by repeatedly adding the ascii values of each letter in the word “Close” to itself. The first 10 integers in this sequence are: 67, 175, 286, 401, 502, 569, 677, 788, 903...

Dear Everybody, I have a quick question about the \M\ in this proof: Suppose \b_n\ is in \\mathbb{R}\ such that \lim b_n=3\. Then, there is an \ N\in \mathbb{N}\ such that for all \n\geq\, we have \|b_n-3|<1\. Let M1=4 and note that for n\geq N, we have |b_n|=|b_n-3+3|\leq |b_n-3|+|3|<1+3=M1...

*kindly note that i do not have the solutions ...I was looking at this, not quite sure on what they mean by exact fractions, anyway my approach is as follows; ##\dfrac {a}{243}=\dfrac{a(1-r^3)}{240}## ##\dfrac {1}{243}=\dfrac{1-r^3}{240}## ##\dfrac {240}{243}=1-r^3##...

I try to list all the possible sequences: 1 2 3 1 3 5 1 4 7 2 3 4 2 4 6 2 5 8 3 4 5 3 5 7 4 5 6 4 6 8 5 6 7 6 7 8 I get 12 possible outcomes, so the probability is ##\frac{12 \times 3!}{8^3}=\frac{9}{64}## But the answer key is ##\frac{5}{32}## . Where is my mistake? Thanks

The 3rd and 4th terms of an arithmetic sequence are 13 and 18. respectively. What is the 50th term of the sequence! a, 248 b. 250 c. 253 d, 258 e, 763 b the common difference is 5 so $5\cdot 50=\boxed{250}$ basically these are easy but I still seem to miss the goal posts

So there is a post going around the facebook groups about what would happen if we could pour a Sun sized bucket of water onto the sun, the claim being that the sun would gain mass and become a bigger, hotter burning blue star. I know this cannot happen but I was just curious as to what would...

Does the square of the sequence also have a limit of 1. Does the square root also equal 1? I've been trying to find some counterexamples but I think the limit doesn't change under these operations?

Suppose f1,f2... is a sequence of functions from a set X to R. This is the set T={x in X: f1(x),... has a limit in R}. I am confused about what is the meaning of the condition in the set. Is the limit a function or a number value? Why?

Hello! I have been trying to work through this but I have never really been able to use the definition correctly to find a limit sequence. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The sequence $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ are such that, for every positive integer $n$, $a_n>0,\,b_n>0,\,a_{n+1}=a_n+\dfrac{1}{b_n}$ and $b_{n+1}=b_n+\dfrac{1}{a_n}$. Prove that $a_{50}+b_{50}>20$.

First, it must be justified that ##A_n## is decreasing and is bounded from below by the point it converges to. See the other topic (1) ##A_n## is decreasing By definition, ##A_n## is the supremum of the set containing all ##a_k## where ##k\geq n+1## and the set containing ##a_n##. Hence, it...
