  1. Given the alternating series:    n=2∞(-1)^n/ln(n)
  1. (7 pts) Determine if the series converge absolutely.    (Use the fact that: ln n < n )

  1. (7 pts) Determine if the series converge conditionally.

  1. (7 pts) Estimate the sum of the infinite series using the first 4 terms in the series and estimate the error.

  1. (7 pts) How many terms should we use to approximate the sum of the infinite series in question, if we want the error to be less than 0.5?

1. Test the series below for convergence using the Root Test. ∞∑n=1 (4n/10n+1)^n The limit of the root test simplifies to lim n→∞ |f(n)| where f(n)= The limit is:     Based on this, the series Diverges Converges 2. We want to use the Alternating Series Test to determine if the series: ∞∑k=4 (−1)^k+2 k^2/√k^5+3 converges or diverges. We can conclude that: The Alternating Series Test does not apply because the terms of the series do not alternate. The Alternating Series Test...
