    This assignment involves studying the growth rate of sequences. To do this, students are asked to calculate many terms of sequences to look for patterns in how the values change. Specifically, they will analyze sequences such as n^2, ln n, and 2^n to determine which grows the fastest by comparing term values. A sequence grows faster than another if its terms increase more relative to the other as n approaches infinity. The goal is to discover applications of mathematics like statistics and accounting to help develop the country's economy.

    Assignment A: Mathematical Investigation
    Title: Growth rate of sequence

    This assignment is to study how the growth rate of a sequence. However, there
    were many terms must to calculate until a pattern becomes apparent.

    Problem statement is a concise description of the problem or issues a project


    seeks to address. The problem statement identifies the current state, the
    desired future state and any gaps between the two. A problem statement is an
    important communication tool that can help ensure everyone working on a
    project knows what the problem they need to address is and why the project is
    important. So, we can discover the professional field about mathematical such
    as statistics and accounting to develop our country by using the sequence. One
    way to find out is to calculate many terms of the sequences until a pattern
    becomes apparent.

    Growth of rate is many functions or sequences go to infinity when their input


    goes to infinity. For example, we have seen that n^2, ln n, and 2^n all diverge
    to infinity. We often need to know how fast a sequence grows. One way to do
    this is to calculate many terms of the sequences and compare them.
    n n^2 ln n 2^n
    1 1 0 2
    10 100 2.303 1024
    100 10000 4.605 ≈ 10^30
    10000 1000000 6.908 ≈ 10^301
    100000 10^8 9.210 ≈ 10^3010
    1000000 10^10 11.513 ≈ 10^30103
    10000000 10^12 13.816 ≈ 10^301030

    A sequence f (n) grows faster than g (n) (or g grows slower than f) if:
    lim f (n)/g (n) = ∞ or lim g (n)/f (n) = 0.
    n→∞ n→∞
    In this case we write f> >g or g> >f.
    Sequences f (n) and g (n) grow at the same rate if for some L, 0 < L <
    ∞,
    lim f (n)/g (n)= L.
    n→∞
    Rational sequence is a sequence of rational numbers. For example, the fourth
    Farey series. is a rational sequence. Integer sequences are a special case of
    rational sequences. In the OEIS, rational sequences are typically entered as two
    sequences: one for numerators and one for denominators.
    For example, let x be an irrational number (cf. rational number). Take a
    sequence of rational numbers {xk} with the property that {xk} converges, with
    respect to the Euclidean topology, towards x as k tends towards infinity.
    Informally, this means that each of the numbers in the sequence get closer and
    closer to x as we progress further and further along the sequence.
    The term convergence is the opposite of divergence. Convergence defined is
    the act of converging and especially moving toward union or uniformly.
    Divergence defined is when the number of graph is moving in the opposite
    direction of a technical indicator or is moving contrary to other data.
    Convergence and divergence are not same due to convergence can cause the
    sequence is converge to a number. However, divergence does not cause the
    sequence converge to a number because that is only infinitely.
