Question

Find the sum of the following series. If it is divergent, type "Diverges" or "D". -sum_{n=1}^{infty} frac{1}{n} left( -frac{1}{2} ight)^n = frac{1}{2} - frac{1}{8} + frac{1}{24} - frac{1}{64} + ... Answer: Note: You cannot write a decimal number for the answer. Hint: What power series is equal to this sum?
