Give an example of each of the following, or argue that such a request is impossible.

Masteriza [31]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

(a) Let (bn) be a bounded sequence of (an) then, Bolzano- Weierstrass theorem,

(bn) contains a subsequence that is converges.

(b) The sequence :

Xn = 1 + (-1) n / 2 + 1/n

Clearly, (xn) does not contain 1 or 0.

If we take sequence (x2n), then it converges to 1 and when we take sequence (x2n+1),

Then it converges to 0.

1,1/2

1, 1/2, 1/3

1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4

i.e

(xn) = (1,1/2, 1, 1/2, 1/3, …)

Then, the subsequence (xn) that is identically ½ in second column and 1/3 is third column and so on.

It has sub sequence that converges to every point in infinite set {1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5…}.

(d) The sequence

{1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5…}

if we take sequence of given set, then, this set converges to zero. This is not contained in it.

If (xn) converges to every point in set {1, 1/2, 1/3 …} then there exists subsequence which converges to 0. And 0 does not belong to given set.

henry has 68 miles to destination after 45 minutes and 51.5 miles to destination after 71 minutes of driving. How many miles to

Airida [17]

Let d represent the distance of the destination from the starting point.

After 45 min, Henry has already driven d-68 miles. After 71 min., he has already driven d-51.5 miles.

So we have 2 points on a straight line:

(45,d-68) and (71,d-51.5). Let's find the slope of the line thru these 2 points:

d-51.5 - (d-68) 16.5 miles
slope of line = m = ----------------------- = ------------------
71 - 45 26 min

Thus, the slope, m, is m = 0.635 miles/min

The distance to his destination would be d - (0.635 miles/min)(79 min), or

d - 50.135 miles. We don't know how far his destination is from his starting point, so represent that by "d."

After 45 minutes: Henry has d - 68 miles to go;

After 71 minutes, he has d - 51.5 miles to go; and

After 79 minutes, he has d - x miles to go. We need to find x.

Actually, much of this is unnecessary. Assuming that Henry's speed is 0.635 miles/ min, and knowing that there are 8 minutes between 71 and 79 minutes, we can figure that the distance traveled during those 8 minutes is

(0.635 miles/min)(8 min) = 5.08 miles. Subtracting thix from 51.5 miles, we conclude that after 79 minutes, Henry has (51.5-5.08), or 46.42, miles left before he reaches his destination.

A wheel with radius 1 foot makes 1 revolution in 4 seconds. What is the linear velocity, in feet per second, of a point on the e

Alona [7]

In one revolution of the wheel, a point on the edge travels a distance equal to the circumference of the wheel.

The wheel has radius 1 ft, so its circumference is 2π (1 ft) = 2π ft.

Then the point has a linear speed of

(1/4 rev/s) * (2π ft/rev) = 2π/4 ft/s = π/2 ft/s
