Convergence or Divergence
Which of the series in Exercises 57–64 converge, and which diverge? Give reasons for your answers.
∑ (from n = 1 to ∞) [(-1)ⁿ (n!)ⁿ] / [n^(n²)]

Error Estimates

The approximation eˣ = 1 + x + (x² / 2) is used when x is small. Use the Remainder Estimation Theorem to estimate the error when |x| < 0.1.

Determining Convergence or Divergence

In Exercises 1–14, determine whether the alternating series converges or diverges. Some of the series do not satisfy the conditions of the Alternating Series Test.

∑ (from n = 1 to ∞) [(-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (1 / n^(3/2))]

Convergence and Divergence

Which of the sequences {aₙ} in Exercises 31–100 converge, and which diverge? Find the limit of each convergent sequence.

aₙ = 2 + (0.1)ⁿ

In Exercises 53–56, determine how many terms should be used to estimate the sum of the entire series with an error of less than 0.001.

∑ (from n = 1 to ∞) [(-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (n / (n² + 1))]

Determining Convergence or Divergence

Which of the series in Exercises 17–56 converge, and which diverge? Use any method, and give reasons for your answers.

∑ (from n=1 to ∞) 1 / (2√n + ³√n)

Using the Ratio Test

In Exercises 1–8, use the Ratio Test to determine whether each series converges absolutely or diverges.

∑(from n=2 to ∞) [(3ⁿ⁺²) / ln(n)]
