Analyze Sequence: Analyze the sequence.We have a sequence with two terms: (n2) and (53)n. We will take the limit of each term separately as n approaches infinity.
Limit of (2/n): Take the limit of the first term (2/n) as n approaches infinity. The term (2/n) approaches 0 as n becomes very large, because the numerator is constant and the denominator grows without bound. limn→+∞(2/n)=0
Limit of (53)n: Take the limit of the second term (53)n as n approaches infinity.The term (53)n also approaches 0 as n becomes very large, because 53 is a fraction less than 1, and any fraction less than 1 raised to an increasingly large power will approach 0.(53)n0
Combine Limits: Combine the limits of the two terms.Since both terms approach 0 as n approaches infinity, the limit of the entire sequence is the sum of the limits of the individual terms.\lim_{n \to +\infty} \left[\frac{\(2\)}{n} + \left(\frac{\(3\)}{\(5\)}\right)^n\right] = \lim_{n \to +\infty} \left(\frac{\(2\)}{n}\right) + \lim_{n \to +\infty} \left(\frac{\(3\)}{\(5\)}\right)^n = \(0 + 0 = 0
