real analysis - Where does this sequence sqrt7,sqrt7+sqrt7,sqrt7+sqrt7+sqrt7,.... converge?





The given sequence is 7,7+7,7+7+7,.....and so on.



the sequence is increasing so to converge must be bounded above.Now looks like they would not exceed 7. The given options are





  1. 1+332


  2. 1+322


  3. 1+302


  4. 1+292




How to proceed now.
Thanks for any help.


Answer



Trick: Let X=7+7+.... We have X=7+X and so X2=7+X. Now you solve the quadratic equation.
