The set of all sequences in the normed space X is a vector space under the natural component-wise definitions of vector addition and scalar multiplication:

{x1,x2,...}+{y1,y2,...}={x1+y1,x2+y2,...}\{x_1,x_2,...\}+\{y_1,y_2,...\}=\{x_1+y_1,x_2+y_2,...\} and

α{x1,x2,...}={αx1,αx2,...}\alpha\{x_1,x_2,...\}=\{\alpha x_1,\alpha x_2,...\}

So, if  xn→x and yn→y, then:

xn+yn→x+y and αxn→αx, where α is any scalar.
