    MATH 163

    Written Assignment 1

    1) Find a formula for the sequences:

    5 3 7 1
    a. {−4, 2 , − 2 , 8 , − 2 , … } (hint: some terms might be reduced more than desired)

    b. {1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, … }

    c. {1, 0, −1, 0, 1, 0, … }

    1 1
    d. {−1, , −3, , −5, … }
    2 4

    2) Find the sum of the series:

    a.
    ∞
    (−1)𝑛
    ∑
    22𝑛+1
    𝑛=2

    b.
    ∞

    ∑ 3𝑛−2 7−𝑛+1
    𝑛=0

    c.
    ∞
    1 1
    ∑( − )
    𝑛+1 𝑛+2
    𝑛=0

    (hint: part c is telescoping, write out the first few terms to see the pattern!)
    3) Determine if the series is convergent or divergent, and explain:

    a.
    ∞
    𝜋 𝑛 + 4𝑛
    ∑
    8𝑛
    𝑛=1

    b.
    ∞
    𝑒𝑛
    ∑
    𝑛3
    𝑛=1

    c.

    1 1 1 1
    + + + +⋯
    6 12 18 24

    d.
    ∞
    1 1
    ∑3( 𝑛 − )
    5 𝑛
    𝑛=1

    e. (use the Limit Comparison test):


    ∞
    1
    ∑
    𝑛1/2 −1
    𝑛=2

    f. (use the Alternating Series test):


    ∞
    (−1)𝑛
    ∑
    𝑛1/2 − 1
    𝑛=2

    g.
    ∞
    4 ∙ 7 ∙ 10 ∙ … ∙ (3𝑛 + 1)
    ∑
    (2𝑛)!
    𝑛=1

    h.
    ∞
    𝑛(−2)2𝑛
    ∑
    7𝑛 (𝑛2 + 1)
    𝑛=2
