1. (a) Determine whether or not the function g : {2π} ∪ [−π, π] → R defined by
e−x sin(x), x 6= 2π
g(x) =
1, x = 2π
is uniformly continuous. [12 marks]
(b) Let {xn } be a sequence of real numbers and x ∈ R. Suppose there exists M ∈ N such that
xn = x for all n ≥ M . Prove that {xn } converges to x. [5 marks]
(c) Determine whether the following series is convergent or divergent

2. (a) Let M > 0 and f : R → R satisfy the condition |f (x) − f (y)| ≤ M |x − y| for all x, y ∈ R. Show
that f is uniformly continuous on R. [5 marks]
(b) Determine whether or not the sequence {xn } defined by

is convergent. [5 marks]
(c) Consider the real sequence {xn } defined by

By using the Monotone Convergence Theorem, prove that {xn } is a convergent sequence.
(Hint: show that − 12 ≤ xn ≤ 0). [15 marks]
3. (a) Let {xn } and {yn } be two sequences of real numbers and x ∈ R. If there exists a k > 0 and
m ∈ N such that |xn − x| ≤ k|yn |, ∀n ≥ m and yn → 0 as n → ∞, prove that xn → x as n → ∞.
[6 marks]
(b) Let {xn } be a bounded sequence. Prove that if {xn } is monotonically decreasing then it con-
verges to its infimum. [9 marks]
(c) Classify the infinite series

as either absolutely convergent, conditionally convergent, or divergent. Clearly state the name
of any convergence test that you use. [10 marks]
