A: De-mystifying tricks – If $\{x_n\}$ converges, then Cesaro Mean converges. There's a lot going on here, so I'll start with some overview. It looks like the idea of the proof is to split $1,...,n$ into two pieces, where the first piece is of fixed size $C$, and the second piece has average close enough to $L$. The first piece has fixed size but the second piece can be made s... (more) |

A: How can I visualize $\lim\limits_{x \rightarrow \pm \infty} f(x) = \lim\limits_{t \rightarrow 0^{\pm}} f(1/t)$? I'm not sure if it's really possible to visualize it without creating another graph, but what you could do is take a function, like f(x) = sin(2x²)/2x², and graph f(x) and f(1/x) on the same graph. Notice how the peaks and valleys of the red function, f(x), and the blue function, f(1/x), correspond t... (more) |

A: How to quantify "married people are less likely than the average person to smoke", "smokers are less likely than the average person to be married"? Let's consider 2.1 first. You said that married smokers smokers, but now married smokers / married people is 10%, and all smokers / all people is 20% (check this yourself). I wonder if you meant to write married smokers < all smokers, which is the same kind of error as for equation 2.1 if you swi... (more) |
