(1 point) We will determine whether the series n3 + 2n an - is convergent or divergent using the Limit Comparison Test (note that the Comparison Test is difficult to apply in this case). The given series has positive terms, which is a requirement for applying the Limit Comparison Test. First we must find an appropriate series bn for comparison (this series must also have positive terms). The most reasonable choice is ba - (choose something of the form 1/mp...

(4) Let Σ ak and Σ bk be series with positive terms. The limit comparison test applies when a/bk L0; suppose for this problem that ak/bk0. (a) Show that if Σ bk converges, then Σ ak converges. Hint: remember we can delete finitely many terms from the series and not affect convergence. Use the fact a/bk0 to truncate the series at a convenient point.

(1 point) Each of the following statements is an attempt to show that a given series is convergent or divergent by using the Comparison Test (NOT the Limit Comparison Test.) For each statement, enter C (for "correct") if the argument is valid, or enter I (for "incorrect") if any part of the argument is flawed (Note: if the conclusion is true but the argument that led to it was wrong, you must enter l.) In(n) > 1, , and the...
