Monotonic Sequences and Bounded Sequences (Patreon)

This calculus 2 video tutorial provides a basic introduction into monotonic sequences and bounded sequences. A monotonic sequence is a sequence that is always increasing or decreasing. You can prove that a sequence is always increasing by showing that the next term is greater than the previous term. This video also discusses bounded sequences. A sequence can be bounded above or have an upper bound it it has a maximum value it can reach. If there is a minimum value in the sequence, then it has a lower bound or it's bounded below. A sequence that is bounded above and bounded below is said to be bounded. A monotonic sequence that is bounded is said to be convergent. This video explains how to determine the convergence and divergence of a sequence by determining if its a monotonic sequence and if its a bounded sequence. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.
