Step-by-Step Analysis
We are given three positive sequences a_n, b_n, c_n that diverge to infinity, with a_n = o(b_n) (i.e., a_n << b_n). We examine each option to determine whether it must be true under these assumptions. Option 1: IF โˆ€n, b_n = 2 c_n, THEN a_n << c_n. Since b_n = 2 c_n, we have a_n / c_n = (a_n / b_n) * (b_n / c_n) = (a_n / b_n) * 2. Because a_n / b_n โ†’ 0 by a_n << b_n, multiplying by the constant 2 preserves the limit, so a_n / c_n โ†’ 0.
