The1TL Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 Using the fact that for all n≥M, (a^n)≤(a^M/M!)(a/M)^(n-M), Show that given some ε > 0, there exists a natural number M such that for all n ≥ M, (a^n)/n! < ε So Im looking for a potential value for M that would complete my proof. So far I have found that if M = ε(a^2+1) then it works, through experimenting with different values for a. However, this does not incorporate that (a^n)≤(a^M/M!)(a/M)^(n-M). I also cannot find a way of proving that choosing M = ε(a^2+1) works for this problem. Should I take a different approach?
