CAN SOMEONE CHECK MY ANSWER? Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, give the limit. 60, -10, five divided by three, negative five divided by eighteen, ... I got: Diverges Here are my choices: Diverges Converges; 11100 Converges; 72 Converges; 0
hard to read but it looks like they go to zero
\[60,-10,\frac{5}{3},-\frac{5}{18}...\]right?
is it clear what you are doing to one number in the sequence to get the next number?
Correct @satellite73
Dividing by -6
yup
and if you keep dividing by -6, what happens ?
The numbers get smaller
Eventually to 0?
like for example \[\frac{5}{(-6)^{20}}\]
yeah goes to zero (lickety split i might add)
Oh, wow you made it seem very simple. Thank you very much for your time!
lol you are welcome, it is rather simple, once you know what you are doing
unlike for example the question @Loser66 answered earlier
which was very simple once you knew the answer, but not so simple beforehand
