Limit of Sequences from Limits of Functions
• Suppose f is a function such that for all positive integers n. If , then the limit of the sequence is also L.

Limit Laws for Sequences
• Assume that the sequences and have limits A and B, respectively. Then,
• , where c is a real number
• , provided

Monotonic Sequence
• A sequence {an} is called increasing if an< an+1 for all , that is, a1< a2< a3<…. It is called decreasing if an>an+1. It is called monotonic if it is either increasing or decreasing.

Bounded Sequence
• A sequence {an} is bounded above if there is a number M such that
• It is bounded below if there is a number m such that
• If it is bounded above and below, then {an} is a bounded sequence.

Geometric Sequence
• The geometric sequence {r n} will converge if , otherwise the sequence diverges.

Monotonic Sequence Theorem
• Every bounded, monotonic sequence is convergent.

Limit of a Sequence
• The sequence converges to L provided the terms of can be made arbitrarily close to L by taking n sufficiently large. More precisely, has the unique limit L if given any tolerance , it is possible to find a positive integer N (depending on ) such that where n > N.

Limit of a Sequence
• If the limit of a sequence is L, we say the sequence converges to L, written
• A sequence that does not converge is said to diverge.
