how to show that the sequence $x_{n+1}=\frac{x_n}{2}+\frac{5}{x_n}$, $x_1=2$ is convergent.

Only thing i could figure out is that the limit of sequence is $\sqrt{10}$ so it is convergent.

I understand that a continued fraction of the form: $g(n_1,n_2,n_3,n_4,n_5,\ldots)= n_1 + \cfrac{1}{n_2 + \cfrac{1}{n_3 + \cfrac{1}{n_4 + \c...
