Math Problem Statement
Study the nature of the following series using the theorem of comparison to an integral: (1) sum(n/(n^2 + 1)) from n=1 to infinity, (2) sum(1/(n ln(n) ln(ln(n)))) from n=2 to infinity, (3) sum(1/(n^2 + 1)) from n=1 to infinity.
Solution
The exercise provided asks to study the convergence or divergence of three infinite series using the theorem of comparison to an integral. Let's analyze each one in detail:
1.
- Rewrite the term: for large .
- Comparison to : Compare it with the harmonic series , which diverges.
- Perform integral testing on to confirm if divergence matches.
1. Analyze (\sum_{n=1}^\infty \
