(Solved): Using the definition show that the following sequence is not a Cauchy sequence: \[ x_{n}=\frac{1}{ ...



Using the definition show that the following sequence is not a Cauchy sequence:
\[
x_{n}=\frac{1}{2^{2}}+\frac{2}{3^{2}}+\ldo

Using the definition show that the following sequence is not a Cauchy sequence: \[ x_{n}=\frac{1}{2^{2}}+\frac{2}{3^{2}}+\ldots+\frac{n}{(n+1)^{2}} \] [Hint: consider \( x_{2 n}-x_{n} \). You can use the fact that if \( \left\{x_{n}\right\} \) is Cauchy then \( x_{2 n}-x_{n} \) must converge to 0 , we proved it in class.]

given sequence is xn=122+232+….+n(n+1)2------(1) so , x2n=122+232+….+n(n+1)2+n+1(n+2)2+n+2(n+3)2+…..+2n(2n+1)2-------(2) from (1) and (2) we have , x2
