Suppose \(\{a_n\}\) is a sequence of real numbers such that \[a_{n+1} = \frac{1}{2}a_n + 3\] for each natural number \(n \geq 1.\) Which of these statements are true?
A. If \(\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty}a_n = L,\) then \(L = \frac{1}{2}L + 3.\)
B. \(\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty}a_n = 6.\)

Suppose \(\{a_n\}\) is a sequence of real numbers such that \[a_{n+1} = \frac{1}{2}a_n + 3\] for each natural number \(n \geq 1.\) Which of these statements are true?
A. \(\{a_n\}\) is bounded.
B. \(\{a_n\}\) is monotone.
C. \(\{a_n\}\) converges.
Definitions. A sequence \(\{x_n\}\) of real number is:
bounded if there is a real number \(M\) such that \(-M < x_n < M\) for all \(n.\)
monotone if \(x_n \leq x_{n+1}\) for all \(n,\) or \(x_n \geq x_{n+1}\) for all \(n.\)
convergent if there is a number \(L\) such that for every \(\epsilon > 0,\) there is a natural number \(N\) satisfying
\[n > N \Rightarrow |x_n - L| < \epsilon.\]
