12 . Cosider the two series I: ( ) ad the statemets + ( ) ad II: ( AC ) The series coverges absolutely ( CC ) The series coverges coditioally ( D ) The series diverges For each series, decide which of statemets (AC), (CC), (D) is correct. a) I: AC, II: AC b) I: AC, II: CC c) I: AC, II: D d) I: CC, II: AC e) I: CC, II: CC f) I: CC, II: D g) I: D, II: AC h) I: D, II: CC i) I: D, II: D j) Wrog aswer Solutio: h > a : -> (/(+))^; a : + We studied the limit of this sequece i cojuctio with cotiuous compoudig. > limit(a(), ifiity); e (- ) Sice this umber is ot 0, it follows from the divergece test that the series diverges (D).

13 II) > a : -> ^(/)/(+^(4/)); a : ( / ) + ( 4 / ) > b : -> /^(/); #Captures the size of a() b : ( / ) > limit(a()/b(), ifiity); Sice this umber is ot 0 ad ot, we coclude from the Limit Compariso Test that the series + 4 has the same behavior as the series, which is diverget sice it is a p-series with p. As a result, we coclude that the give series is ot absolutely coverget. Sice the give series coverges by the Alteratig Series Test, we coclude that it is coditioally coverget (CC).. Cosider the two series I: 0 π ad the statemets ad II: 0! 0 ( 00 ) ( C ) The Ratio Test establishes covergece ( D ) The Ratio Test establishes divergece ( F ) The Ratio Test is ot coclusive. Apply the Ratio Test to series I ad II ad for each, decide which of statemets (C), (D), (F) is correct.

II > a : ->!/(0^(00*)); > r : simplify(a(+)/a()); a :! 0 ( 00 ) r : / \ / \ > limit(r, ifiity);

15 Because this limit is greater tha, the Ratio Test establishes divergece (D).. Cosider the two series + I: ad the statemets ad II: + ( C ) The Root Test establishes covergece ( D ) The Root Test establishes divergece ( F ) The Root Test is ot coclusive. Apply the Root Test to series I ad II ad for each, decide which of statemets (C), (D), (F) is correct. a) I: C, II: C b) I: C, II: D c) I: C, II: F d) I: D, II: C e) I: D, II: D f) I: D, II: F g) I: F, II: C h) I: F, II: D i) I: F, II: F j) Wrog aswer Solutio: g I > a : -> ((+^)/(0+00*^+^))^; a : > r : combie(a()^(/), symbolic);

16 + r : > Limit(a()^(/), ifiity) limit(r, ifiity); lim Because this is equal to, the Root Test is ot coclusive (F). II > a : -> ((+)//)^; + a : > r : combie(a()^(/), symbolic); + r : > Limit(a()^(/), ifiity) limit(r, ifiity); lim + Because this is less tha, the Root Test establishes covergece (C). 4.
