Expert Solution
Step 1
We have to give the proof of the second part i.e., part (b) of problem 7.4.2. We have to
show that if a sequence is convergent then its limit is unique.
Let us consider the sequence (s,) such that lim s, = sand lim S, = t, for all natural
n-00
n-00
numbers n E N.
Step 2
We have lim Sn = s and lim s, = t. This implies that the sequence (s,) tends to different limits s
n-00
and t. We can write lim S, - lim s, = s - t.
Now,
lim S.
lim S=s -t
n-00
lim (S, - s,)=s - t
lim (0)=s -t
n- 00
0=s - t
(: limit of a constant sequence containing 0 is 0)
s=t
Therefore, the limit of a convergent sequence is unique.

Problem 7.4.1. Prove that if
lim,00 Sn = s then limn-→ 8n = |s|.
Prove that the converse is true when
s = 0, but it is not necessarily true
otherwise.
Problem 7.4.2.
(a) Let (sn) and (tn) be sequences with
Sn < tn, Vn. Suppose limn0 8n = s and
lim, +0 tn = t.
Prove s < t.
Hint. Assume for contradiction, that
s >t and use the definition of
* to produce an
convergence with ɛ =
n with sn > tn.
(b) Prove that if a sequence converges,
then its limit is unique. That is, prove that
if limn→0 Sn = s and limn→∞
Sn
t, then
s = t.
