Say I have this sequence:



$$a_n = frac{n^2}{sqrt{n^3 + 4n}}$$



Again, I don't think I can divide the numerator and denominator by $n^{1.5}$... that seems like it complicates things. What else can I do?



I can't square the top and bottom because that changes the value of the general sequence. Can I divide by $n^2$?



Is this valid:



$$a_n = frac{1}{sqrt{frac{n^3}{n^4} + frac{4}{n}}}$$

    What are you trying to do with the sequence? Are you trying to determine if it converges / find its limit? In your last identity, you should have $4/n^3$ in the denominator.

You can easily find a divergent minorant:



$$frac{n^2}{sqrt{n^3 + 4n}} ge frac{n^2}{sqrt{n^3 + 4n^color{blue}{3}}} = sqrt{frac{n}{5}} to +infty$$

      We have:



      $$a_n = frac{sqrt{n} }{sqrt{1 + frac{4}{n^2}}}$$



      You can see that the denominator tends to 1, so that $a_n$ clearly diverges, behaving asymptotically as $sqrt{n}$.
