Solution by Steps
step 1
We start by analyzing the given sequence an=n5sin(5n)a_n = \frac{n}{5} \sin \left( \frac{5}{n} \right)
step 2
To find the limit as nn approaches infinity, we use the fact that sin(x)x\sin(x) \approx x when xx is close to 0. Here, as nn \to \infty, 5n0\frac{5}{n} \to 0
step 3
Substitute sin(5n)5n\sin \left( \frac{5}{n} \right) \approx \frac{5}{n} into the sequence: ann55na_n \approx \frac{n}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{n}
step 4
Simplify the expression: ann55n=1a_n \approx \frac{n}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{n} = 1
step 5
Therefore, limnan=1\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n = 1
Answer
The sequence converges to 1.
Key Concept
Limit of a sequence involving trigonometric functions
Explanation
By approximating sin(x)\sin(x) with xx for small values of xx, we can simplify the sequence and find its limit as nn approaches infinity.
