### Problem Statement:

1. **Prove directly from the definitions that if \( a_n \to +\infty \) and \(\{ b_n \} \) is a sequence of positive terms bounded away from 0, then \( a_n b_n \to +\infty \).**

2. **Let \( c \in \mathbb{R} \) and \( p \in \mathbb{N} \) be fixed. Prove that:**

*[The rest of this statement is missing from the image.]*

### Explanation:

- **Definitions:**
  - **\( a_n \to +\infty \):** This means that the sequence \(\{ a_n \}\) grows without bound. For any large number \( M \), there exists an integer \( N \) such that for all \( n \geq N \), \( a_n > M \).
  - **Sequence bounded away from 0:** A sequence \(\{ b_n \}\) is bounded away from 0 if there exists a positive number \( m > 0 \) such that \( b_n \geq m \) for all \( n \).

- **Objective:** 
  - For sequences \( \{ a_n \} \) and \( \{ b_n \} \), show that their product \( a_n b_n \) also tends to infinity.
