Determine if the sequence is increasing, decreasing, or not monotonic. Is the sequence bounded? \[a_n=\frac{2n-3}{3n+4}\]

OpenStudy (turingtest):

looks like monotonic decreasing since we have 2n up top and 3n in the denom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let's just say that I don't understand the meaning of a bounded sequence

OpenStudy (turingtest):

except for the fact that it's not monotonic for n=0 to n=2

OpenStudy (turingtest):

the bound of the sequence is just the limiting value as \(n\to\infty\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the limiting value is the value at which n-> infinity?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we are looking for this"limiting" value by checking to see if it's increasing or decreasing?
