Direct comparison test:
\Let for all
.
1.If convergence, then
convergence.
2.If diverges, then
diverges.
The series is . Here
and
.
Observe that .
.
The series is in the form of geometric series.
\The general form of geometric series is .
Here and
.
is geometric series.
Convergence of a geometric series:
\A geometric series with common ratio diverges if
.
If then the series converges to the sum
.
with ratio
.
The series is converges to the sum of series.
\.
The series is converges to .
Using the direct comparision test if the series is converges, then
is converges.
Therefore, the series is converges.
The series is converges.
