Let xn := nl/n for n EN. (a) Show that xn+1< xn if and only if (1 + l/n)n < n, and infer

Chapter 3, Problem 6

(choose chapter or problem)

Let xn := nl/n for n EN. (a) Show that xn+1< xn if and only if (1 + l/n)n < n, and infer that the inequality is valid for n 2: 3. (See Example 3.3.6.) Conclude that (xn) is ultimately decreasing and that x := lim(x n) exists.
