1 SERIES TESTS Special Series: Question in the exam
Is the series convergent or divergent? Special Series: Series Tests Geometric Series Harmonic Series Telescoping Series Alter Harmonic p-series Alternating p-series Divergence Test Integral Test Comparison Test Limit Compar Test Ratio Test Root Test Alter Series Test

2 ALTERNATING SERIES TEST

3 ALTERNATING SERIES series with positive terms Series Tests
Divergence Test Integral Test Comparison Test Limit Compar Test Ratio Test Root Test Alter Series Test series with some positive and some negative terms All alternating series

4 ALTERNATING SERIES alternating series n-th term of the series
are positive

5 ALTERNATING SERIES alternating series alternating harmonic series
alternating geomtric series alternating p-series

6 ALTERNATING SERIES convg Example:
THEOREM: (THE ALTERNATING SERIES TEST) alternating decreasing lim = 0 convg Remark: The convergence tests that we have looked at so far apply only to series with positive terms. In this section and the next we learn how to deal with series whose terms are not necessarily positive. Of particular importance are alternating series, whose terms alternate in sign. Example: Determine whether the series converges or diverges.

7 ALTERNATING SERIES convg Example:
THEOREM: (THE ALTERNATING SERIES TEST) alternating decreasing lim = 0 convg Example: Determine whether the series converges or diverges.

8 ALTERNATING SERIES convg Example:
THEOREM: (THE ALTERNATING SERIES TEST) alternating decreasing lim = 0 convg Example: Determine whether the series converges or diverges.

9 Absolutely convergent (AC)
Alternating Series, Absolute and Conditional Convergence the series of absolute values DEF: Example: The series is called Absolutely convergent (AC) Test the series for absolute convergence. If the series of absolute values is convergent Also we may say that converges absolutely

10 Absolutely convergent
Alternating Series, Absolute and Conditional Convergence DEF: IF Is called Absolutely convergent convergent converges absolutely Example: Test the series for absolute convergence.

11 Conditionally convergent (CC) Is called conditionally convergent
Alternating Series, Absolute and Conditional Convergence DEF: The series is called Conditionally convergent (CC) If it is convergent but the series of absolute values is divergent DEF: Example: Is called conditionally convergent Test the series for absolute convergence. if it is convergent but not absolutely convergent. REM: convg divg

12 Alternating Series, Absolute and Conditional Convergence
Absolutely convergent convergent THM: convg convg THM: Example: Determine whether the series converges or diverges. The signs change irregularly

13 conditionally convergent Absolutely convergent
Alternating Series, Absolute and Conditional Convergence conditionally convergent Absolutely convergent convergent divergent

14 SERIES TESTS Special Series: Questions in the exam
Is the series convergent or divergent? Special Series: Geometric Series Harmonic Series Telescoping Series Alter Harmonic p-series Alternating p-series

15 ALTERNATING SERIES series with positive terms Series Tests
Divergence Test Integral Test Comparison Test Limit Compar Test Ratio Test Root Test Alter Series Test series with some positive and some negative terms All alternating series

16 THE RATIO TEST

17 Ratio Test Example: THE RATIO AND ROOT TESTS be an infinite series
the Ratio Test is inconclusive; that is, no conclusion can be drawn about the convergence or divergence Example: Test the series for convergence.
