The sequence is
.
A sequence
is monotonic if its terms are non decreasing
or if its terms are non increasing
.
The terms in the sequence is first increasing and then it is decreasing.
\Therefore, the sequence is not monotonic.
\The sequence is
.
The sequence is bounded between

The sequence is bounded.
\The sequence is not monotonic but bounded.
