The sequence is increasing, decreasing or not monotonic and bounded or not bounded.

Answer to Problem 50E
The sequence is monotone increasing and the sequence is bounded.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The sequence is
Definitions:
Monotone increasing: A sequence
Monotone decreasing: A sequence
Given sequence,.
Now we find
From the above definition, we have
Thus,
Hence,
From the above definition , the sequence is monotone increasing .
Definition of a bounded sequence: A sequence
Now let,
To justify that the guess is correct.
In order that this inequality may be true we should have
Hence, the given sequence is bounded.
