Problem 4

n
I limn→∞ n+1 =1

1
Proof : For any  > 0 , ∃N∈ N such that N <
n 1 1 1
then ∀n > N ⇒ | n+1 − 1| = n+1 < n < N <
n
Therefore, limn→∞ n+1 = 1.

II limn→∞ n1 = 0

1
Proof : For any  > 0 , ∃N∈ N such that N <

then ∀n > N ⇒ | n1 − 0| = 1
n < 1
N <

Therefore, limn→∞ n1 = 0.

n+5 ≤ 15
n < 15

IV limn→∞ n1k = 0 when k > 0

1
Proof : For any  > 0, ∃N ∈ N such that nk

then ∀n > N ⇒ n < N ⇒ nk

Therefore, limn→∞ n1k = 0.
