Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, give the limit. 60, -10, five divided by three, negative five divided by eighteen, ... Diverges Converges; 11100 Converges; 72 Converges; 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... means its going on forever, so it is diverging

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

converging means getting closer to those numbers, and your function is getting smalleras well

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is why it does not converge

OpenStudy (kainui):

No, wrong @Venny. This converges to zero.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no? it is getting further away from 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it starts at 60 then goes negative.. it passed 0

OpenStudy (kainui):

It starts at 60 and then goes to -10 which is much closer to zero.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind I am confused sorry

OpenStudy (kainui):

Just because it passes 0 doesn't mean it doesn't converge. It looks like this: |dw:1405372693526:dw|
