- Finding the Sum of an Infinite Series In Exercises 17 and 18, find the sum of the infinite series. k=18110karrow_forward(a) Find a power series representation for f(y) =(y^2)/(b+y^3), b >0. use Σ notation, with nothing in front of (or outside of) the Σ, with only one factor for each variable or constant, and no fractions within fractions. (b) State the radius of convergence of your power seriesarrow_forwardSeries of squares Prove that if ∑ak is a convergent series of positiveterms, then the series ∑a2k also converges.arrow_forward
- Real Analysis Prove that the series (a1-a2)+(a2-a3)+(a3-a4)+ . . . converges if and only if the sequence {an}n=1 to infinity converges.arrow_forwardUse the power series representation 1/(1 − x)= ∞ ∑ x3, |x| < 1 N=0 to find a power series representation of f(x) = x2/(4 + x). Include the interval of convergence in your answer.arrow_forwardProving the Alternating Series Test (Theorem 2.7.7) amountsto showing that the sequence of partial sums sn = a1 − a2 + a3 −· · ·±an converges. (The opening example in Section 2.1 includes a typical illustration of (sn).) Different characterizations of completeness lead to different proofs. (a) Prove the Alternating Series Test by showing that (sn) is a Cauchysequence. (b) Supply another proof for this result using the Nested Interval Property(Theorem 1.4.1). (c) Consider the subsequences (s2n) and (s2n+1), and show how the Monotone Convergence Theorem leads to a third proof for the Alternating Series Test.arrow_forward
- Convergence of series sum(1/n^4).arrow_forwardBy the alternating series test, the series converges. Find its sum and the first partial fraction decomposition. Find the limit of the partial sums.arrow_forwardShowing work, find the interval of values of x that make each power series converge. If done right, the “center” of the interval should be the corresponding value of a.arrow_forward
