Given the sequence bn, let limn→∞ bn=b.
Suppose that the sequence an and the number a have the property for which there exists M∈R and there exists N∈N such that
|an−a|≤M⋅|bn−b|, ∀n∈N: n≥N
Prove that the limn→∞ an=a.
I need to show that:
∀ϵ>0 ∃N∈N: ∀n≥N:|an−a|<ϵ
I know how to set ϵ such that ϵ>0.
I’m lost from here. Because bn converges I know
|bn−b|<ϵ
And I think it’s safe to assume:
|bn−b|≤M⋅|bn−b|.
So I could prove this either by showing
|an−a|≤|bn−b|
Or,
M⋅|bn−b|<ϵ
But I’m not sure how to start either way. Any suggestions?
