9. Let (x) and (yn) be sequences of positive numbers such that lim (xn/Yn) = +∞, a. Show that if lim (yn) = +∞, then lim (xn) = +∞. b. Show that if (xn) is bounded, then lim (yn) = 0. Solution 9. (a) Since x/yn → ∞, there exists K₁ such that if n> K₁, then xnyn. Now apply Theorem 3.6.4(a). (b) Let 0 < x < M. If (y) does not converge to o, there exist & > 0 and a subsequence (yn) such that E0Yn. Since lim(x/yn) = ∞, there exists K such that if k > K, then M/ɛ0 < xn/Ynk, which is a contradiction. Hint >>
