What test do I use to prove the limit of n/(n+1) converges to one (1)?Is it the limit conparison test?
can't use ratio or root test bacause p=1
It's a sequence, not a series, so none of the tests you mentioned
applies.
Just take the limit of the continuous function x/(x+1) as x approaches
infinity.
Hint: Divide numerator abd denominator by x and then look at the limit
again.
Alternate hint (but overkill): Use L'Hospital's rule.
