Convergent or divergent sequence

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-04-30] [Hit: ]
= lim(t→∞) [(1 + 1/t)^t]^3,= e^3, using the limit definition for e.I hope this helps!......
Hello, I have 3 questions here, hopefully someone can please help me to check on their convergence and limit.

1. sequence = (ln n / ln 2n)
the limit I calculated is 1. therefore, convergent.

2. sequence = (1+[2/n]) ^ (1/n)
the limit i calculated is 1. therefore, convergent.

3. sequence = (1+[3/n]) ^ n
the limit i calculated is 1. therefore, convergent.

Thank you very much in advance.

1) lim(n→∞) ln n / ln(2n)
= lim(n→∞) (1/n) / (2/(2n)), by L'Hopital's Rule
= 1.

2) lim(n→∞) (1 + 2/n)^(1/n) = 1^0 = 1.

3) lim(n→∞) (1 + 3/n)^n
= lim(n→∞) [(1 + 3/n)^(n/3)]^3
= lim(t→∞) [(1 + 1/t)^t]^3, letting t = n/3
= e^3, using the limit definition for e.

I hope this helps!
