\"\"

\

Integral test:

\

Suppose \"\" is a continuous, positive, decreasing function on \"\" and let \"\".

\

Then the series \"\" is convergent if and only if the improper integral \"\" is convergent.

\

(i) If \"\" is convergent, then \"\" is convergent.

\

(ii) If \"\" is divergent, then \"\" is divergent.

\

\"\"

\

The series is \"\".

\

Using integral test:

\

Consider the integral \"\".

\

The function \"\" is positive and decreasing for \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\".

\

The integral is diverges.

\

Therefore, the series \"\" is diverges.

\

\"\"

\

The series \"\" is diverges.
