    Study Notes

    True or False Questions

    • If the limit of a sequence as n approaches infinity is 0, then the series is convergent. False. This statement is false; a convergent series does not necessarily require the limit of the sequence to be zero.

    • The series Σ((-1)^n)/(n!) from n=0 to ∞ is equal to e. True.

    • If f(x) = 2x - x³/3 + x⁵/… , then f"(0) =2. True.

    • If x = f(t) and y = g(t) are twice differentiable, then d²y/dx² = d²y/dt² / d²x/dt². True.

    • The vector (3, -1, 2) is parallel to the plane 6x - 2y + 4z = 1. False. The vector is perpendicular to the plane.

    Evaluating Series

    • The series Σ((-3)^(n-1))/(2^(3n)) from n=1 to ∞ is convergent and equal to 1/8.

    Absolute and Conditional Convergence

    • The series Σ( (-1)^(n-1)ln(n+1)/(n) from n=1 to ∞ converges conditionally.
