1) Use the Divergence Test to determine whether the series diverges or state that the test is inconclusive. ?_{k=1}^? k^3 / 8k A) Diverges B) Inconclusive 2) Use the integral test to determine whether the series converges. ?_{n=1}^? 1 / (ln 4)^n A) converges B) diverges 3) Determine the convergence or divergence of the series. ?_{k=1}^? 1 / k^{1.2} A) Converges B) Diverges

Step 1
The Divergence Test states that if the limit of the sequence a_n as n approaches infinity is not equal to 0, then the series diverges. If the limit is equal to 0, the test is inconclusive. Show more…

Decide if the following series CONVERGES or DIVERGES by answering questions (a) - (d) below. (a) Which Method was used? (Choose from DIVERGENCE TEST, GEOMETRIC SERIES TEST, INTEGRAL TEST, P-SERIES, LIMIT COMPARISON TEST, SQUEEZE THEOREM, RATIO TEST, ALTERNATING SERIES TEST) (b) Set up the algebra or limit needed to perform the test. (c) Does the series CONVERGE OR DIVERGE? (d) Write your conclusion, based on the test chosen, as to why you made the conclusion you did.

Use the integral test to determine if the series shown below converges or diverges. Be sure to check that the conditions of the integral test are satisfied. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. Since the integral converges to , the series also converges. (Type an exact answer.) Since the integral diverges, the series also diverges.
