Theorem
Let $\sequence {z_n}$ and $\sequence {w_n}$ be sequences in $\C$.
Let $\sequence {z_n}$ and $\sequence {w_n}$ be convergent to the following limits:
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} z_n = c$
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} w_n = d$
Let $\lambda, \mu \in \C$.
Then the following results hold:
Sum Rule
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} \paren {z_n + w_n} = c + d$
Difference Rule
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} \paren {z_n - w_n} = c - d$
Multiple Rule
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} \paren {\lambda z_n} = \lambda c$
Combined Sum Rule
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} \paren {\lambda z_n + \mu w_n} = \lambda c + \mu d$
Product Rule
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} \paren {z_n w_n} = c d$
Quotient Rule
- $\ds \lim_{n \mathop \to \infty} \frac {z_n} {w_n} = \frac c d$
provided that $d \ne 0$.
