If 0 < a < b, where a, b $\in\mathbb{R}$, determine $\lim \bigg(\dfrac{a^{n+1} + b^{n+1}}{a^{n} + b^{n}}\bigg)$
The answer (from the back of the text) is $\lim \bigg(\dfrac{a^{n+1} + b^{n+1}}{a^{n} + b^{n}}\bigg) = b$ but I have no idea how to get there. The course is Real Analysis 1, so its a course on proofs. This chapter is on limit theorems for sequences and series. The squeeze theorem might be helpful.
I can prove that $\lim \bigg(\dfrac{a^{n+1} + b^{n+1}}{a^{n} + b^{n}}\bigg) \le b$ but I can't find a way to also prove that it is larger than b
Thank you!
