r there any answer choices?
OpenStudy (dan815):
hmmm

1/2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
NOT.

lol
OpenStudy (dan815):
the answer is definately les than 3/4 ill tell u that
Elsa213 (elsa213):

no answer choice but I found out that those expressions can be simplified
OpenStudy (dan815):
umm well
OpenStudy (dan815):
its prollyyyy 1/2 gut feeling
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }*\frac{ 8 }{ 9 }*\frac{ 15 }{ 16}*...*\frac{ n^2-1 }{ n^2 }\]
OpenStudy (dan815):
yeah

but why 1/2 @dan815 instead of 1
OpenStudy (dan815):
itd not 1/2, its a guess, it cant be one since you keeep multiplying by a smaller fraction
OpenStudy (dan815):
hmm lemme tink i think i know a way to solve this
OpenStudy (dan815):
this cud be solve by eigen values
OpenStudy (anonymous):
dan815 you're right this product really tends to 1/2

Base is larger is every term, so every term is less than 1, so overall will be more less result.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I.ve multiplied the first 20 terms of this exp
But still need an algebraic solvation of the problem
OpenStudy (zarkon):
\[\frac{ 1\times 3 }{ 2\times 2 }*\frac{ 2\times 4 }{ 3\times 3 }*\frac{ 3\times 5 }{ 4\times 4}*...*\frac{ (n-1)\times(n+1) }{ n\times n }\]
OpenStudy (zarkon):
then start canceling
OpenStudy (dan815):
pretty cool

\[= \lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{n+1}{n}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Wow, Zarkon, Great...!! :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So, Dan was right.. :)
OpenStudy (dan815):
i think i found a cool soln* with eigen values too xD, if u write recurrence relation, prolly too much work for this algebra problem tho
