Which conclusion can be drawn when applying the comparison test to a series ?
It diverges because it behaves like a p-series with p ≤ 1.
It conditionally converges by comparing it to an alternating harmonic series.
It diverges because it's greater than a known divergent harmonic series.
It converges absolutely because it's less than a convergent geometric series.
For the series , which test provides a less common but valid approach to determine its convergence?
The Ratio Test, applying the limit as approaches infinity of absolute values.
The Root Test by examining the limit of the -th root of terms.
The Limit Comparison Test with the convergent series .
Direct Comparison Test with the divergent series .
What result does applying D'Alembert's Ratio Test give for the convergence of the factorial series ?
The Ratio Test confirms convergence because limit approaches zero as k goes to infinity.
Applying D'Alembert's ratio test yields no useful information for factorial terms.
The Ratio Test is inconclusive because limit approaches one as k goes to infinity.
It indicates divergence since limit exceeds one as k goes to infinity.
