(a) Find the partial sum $ s_5 $ of the series $ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} 1/n2^n. $ Use Exercise 46 to estimate the error in using $ s_5 $ as an approximation to the sum of the series. (b) Find a value of $ n $ so that $ s_n $ is within $ 0.00005 $ of the sum. Use this value of $ n $ to approximate the sum of the series.
