[10 points] Determine whether the following series converge or diverge. Justify your [5 points] n=2( 1)nln(n)nSolution:Note that this series is alternating and that the absolute values of the terms|ln(n)||n|form a decreasing sequence that converges to 0 asnapproaches . Therefore,this series converges by the alternating series [5 points] n=1n n3+ 2 Solution:This can be done with a comparison or limit comparison test.

[10 points] Show that the following series converges. Also, determine whether the seriesconverges conditionally or converges absolutely. Circle the appropriateanswer show all your work and indicate any theorems you use to show convergenceand to determine the type of convergence. n=2( 1)nln(n)nCONVERGES CONDITIONALLYCONVERGES ABSOLUTELYS olution:The series we obtain when we take the absolute value of the terms in theseries above is n=2ln(n)n.

10 Now consider the integral 2ln(x)xdx. By making a change of variables we seethat 2ln(x)xdx= limb b2ln(x)xdx= limb ln(b)ln(2)udu= limb (ln(b))22 (ln(2))22= + and so the integral above diverges. Thus, the integral test implies that n=2ln(n) (n+ 1)n+ 1 ln(n)nand limn ln(n)n= 0, we have that n=2( 1)nln(n)nconverges by thealternating series we have shown that the series n=2( 1)nln(n)nis conditionally of Michigan Department of MathematicsWinter, 2015 Math 116 Exam 3 Problem 1 SolutionMath 116 / Final (April 21, 2016)DO NOT WRITE YOUR NAME ON THIS PAGE page 32.
