Exercise 36 will show how a partial sum can be used to obtain upper and lower bounds on the sum of a series when the hypotheses of the integral test are satisfied. This result will be needed in Exercises 37-40.
(a) Let
(b) Show that if S is the sum of the series

- Use the Integral Test to determine if the series ∞ ∑ 1/n3 N=1 converges or diverges. Be sureto verify that the the conditions of the Integral Test are met.arrow_forwardFind the Taylor series for f(x) = 1/1+2x at x=2 and its interval of convergencearrow_forwardDoes a Taylor series always converge to its generating function? Explain.arrow_forward
- If a power series ∞ n=0 anxn converges absolutely at a pointx0, then it converges uniformly on the closed interval [−c, c], where c = |x0|.arrow_forwardExercise 29-34: For all a> 0 and b > l, the inequalities Inn < na,na < bn are true for n sufficiently large (this can be proved usingL'Hopital's Rule). Use this, together with the Direct Comparison Test, todetermine whether the series converges or diverges.arrow_forwardUse the Limit Comparison test to determine is the series is convergent or divergent. Verify that the conditions of the theorem are metarrow_forward
