222 Spring 2021 Worksheet 15

The document provides instructions for a worksheet that contains more problems than can be covered in a discussion session, allowing students additional practice. It includes specific series problems for students to determine convergence or divergence, as well as problems involving telescopic sums and limits. Additionally, it outlines the integral test and asks for the conditions under which certain series converge.

Instructions: Listen to your TA’s instructions.

There are substantially more problems on this worksheet than we expect


to be done in discussion, and your TA might not have you do problems in order. The worksheets are intentionally longer
than will be covered in discussion in order to give students additional practice problems they may use to study. Do not
worry if you do not finish the worksheet :).
The following problems are copied from last Wednesday’s worksheet in case you didn’t finish them. If you already
did these problems last week, you don’t need to do them again.

1. Decide whether each of the following series is convergent or divergent. If it is convergent, find its value.
