converges or diverges and use properties of monotonic sequences and bounded sequences.
Ms. BattagliaAP Calculus
a) The terms of the sequence {an} = {3 + (-1)n} are
b) The terms of the sequence {bn} = are
Listing the Terms of a Sequence
c) The terms of the sequence {cn} = are
d) The terms of the recursively defined sequence {dn}, where d1 = 25 and dn+1 = dn - 5
Listing the Terms of a Sequence
Find the limit of the sequence whose nth term is
Finding the Limit of a Sequence
a) {an} = {3 + (-1)n} b) {bn} =
Determining Converges or Divergence
Show that the sequence whose nth term is
convergence.
Using L’Hôpital’s Rule to Determine Convergence
Show that the sequence converges, and find its limit.
Using the Squeeze Theorem
Find a sequence {an} whose first five terms are
Finding the nth term of a Sequence
Determine an nth term for a sequence whose first five terms are
Finding the nth Term of a Sequence
Determine whether each sequence having the given nth term is monotonic.
a) b) c)
Determining Whether a Sequence is Monotonic
a. {an} = {1/n} b. {bn} = {n2/(n+1)} c. {cn}={(-1)n}
