Alternating Series Remainder - Concept Review

An alternating series converges if. . .

• limit going to infinity = 0, the series is non-increasing

• limit = 1, the series is always increasing

• limit = 1, the series oscillates between 1 and -1

• limit = 0, the series is nondecreasing

• The estimated partial sum

• The sum of the entire series

• The error bound

T or F: The Alternating Series Remainder is applicable for alternating series' that do not converge.

• True

• False

• 1/6

• 1/40320

• 1/5040

• .0001
