16 нояб. 2022 г. · In this section we will discuss using the Alternating Series Test to determine if an infinite series converges or diverges.

The alternating series test is the method used to show that an alternating series is convergent when its terms (1) decrease in absolute value, and (2) approach ... Alternating series test · Alternating series estimation...

Given an alternating series , ∑ ( − 1 ) k a k , if the sequence { a k } of positive terms decreases to 0 as , k → ∞ , then the alternating series converges. 🔗.

20 авг. 2024 г. · For an alternating series ∞∑n=1(−1)n+1bn, if bk+1≤bk for all k and bk→0 as k→∞, the alternating series converges. · If ∞∑n=1|an| converges, then ...

In other words, if the absolute values of the terms of an alternating series are non-increasing and converge to zero, the series converges.

More generally, any alternating series of form (3) or (4) (see the definition) converges as long as b1≥b2≥b3≥⋯ b 1 ≥ b 2 ≥ b 3 ≥ ⋯ and bn→0 b n → 0 (Figure 2).

i) if ρ< 1, the series converges absolutely. ii) if ρ > 1, the series diverges. iii) if ρ = 1, then the test is inconclusive.

It turns out that for alternating series, the series converges exactly when the limit of the terms is zero. In Figure 6.4, we illustrate what happens to the ...

The alternating series test is a set of conditions that, if satisfied, imply that the series is convergent. Here is the general form of the theorem: Theorem ...
