Prove that an absolutely convergent series is convergent. Hint: Put. Then theare nonnegative; we haveand
(a) Using computer or tables (or see Chapter Section ),verify that,and also verify that the error in approximating the sum of the series by the first five terms is approximately .
(b) By computer or tables verify that
the sum of the first five terms is
(c) Prove theorem . Hint: The error is .
Use the fact that the absolute value of a sum is less than or equal to the sum of the absolute values. Then use the fact that to replace all by , and write the appropriate inequality. Sum the geometric series to get the result.
