What is meant by a p-series?
Explain why, if n is an integer greater than 1, the series diverges.
Explain why the integral test may be used to analyze the given series and then use the test to determine whether the series converges or diverges.
Given a series , in general the divergence test is inconclusive when . For a geometric series, however, if the limit of the terms of the series is zero, the series converges. Explain why.
Use either the divergence test or the integral test to determine whether the series in Exercises 32–43 converge or diverge. Explain why the series meets the hypotheses of the test you select.
