Therefore the limit is

an =n e n 1

1.2

lim (n=)
= (n(e(1 /n )1))

1.3

an =n e n 1

Question 2
An unbounded sequence can have a convergent subsequence. An example
is an=nan=n for n odd, 00for n even.

Question 3

( n+1 ) n( 2n+ 7 )
n=1

3.1.1 Using the DAlemberts ratio test:

The nth term for the series is:

an =

n
(n+1)(2 n+7)

an =

1
n lnn

3.1.2 Using the Integral test:

3.2

n2 1ln n
n=1

3.2.1 Using DAlemberts ratio test

The nth term for the series is:
an +1=

This means

Therefore

1
( ( n+1 ) ) ln ( n+1 )
2

an +1
lim
= n= an

 lim

n=

( n 2 ) lnn

( ( n+1 )2 ) ln ( n+1 )

lim
n=

an +1
