real analysis - Show that (xn) convergent to 0



Show that if xn0 and the limit of ((1)nxn) exists, then (xn) convergent to 0.




I don't have a single clue to solve the problem. I have looking back about monotone sequence, Cauchy sequence, and bounded one, but seem don't lead to this. Please help. Regards


Answer



Since an0 we have, an=|(1)nan|. If a sequence converges to L then its absolute value convergers to |L|, due to the continuity of the absolute value function.



In your case L=0 due to the oscillation of (1)nan.
