In a vector normed space, if $ \{x_n\} \longrightarrow x $ then $ z_n = \dfrac{x_1 + \cdots+x_n}{n} \longrightarrow x $
Is it true the other way arround too? meaning: if $ z_n = \dfrac{x_1 + \cdots+x_n}{n} \longrightarrow x $ then $ \{x_n\} \longrightarrow x $?
My intuition says that it is true because $ z_n = \dfrac{x_1 + \cdots+x_{n-1}}{n} + \frac{x_n}{n}\longrightarrow x$
Thanks :)
Your question is,
If the average of the first $n$ terms of a sequence tends to a limit, does the sequence itself tend to a limit?
The answer is no in general, as is discussed in the comments. The simplest counterexamples are the sequences which oscillate between two different values $\alpha$ and $\beta$; we would expect that the average of the first $n$ terms of such a sequence will tend to the average of $\alpha$ and $\beta$. As a concrete example let's define
$$ x_n = \frac{1+(-1)^n}{2}, $$
so that $x_n$ alternates between $0$ (when $n$ is odd) and $1$ (when $n$ is even). We then have
$$ n \, z_n = x_1 + x_2 + \cdots + x_n = \begin{cases} \frac{n}{2} & \text{if } n \text{ is even}, \\ \frac{n-1}{2} & \text{if } n \text{ is odd}, \end{cases} $$
from which we can deduce that
$$ \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{2n} \leq z_n \leq \frac{1}{2} $$
and thus
$$ \lim_{n \to \infty} z_n = \frac{1}{2}. $$
There are, however, many cases where one can deduce the convergence of the original sequence from the convergence of this average.
For example, if $(x_n)$ is a positive, monotonic sequence, then the convergence of $(z_n)$ implies the convergence of $(x_n)$.
A slightly more difficult (and more useful) example is discussed in this thread.
Results of this general shape are called Tauberian theorems. A nice reference is the book Divergent Series by G. H. Hardy.
