MTH 253 – Calculus (Other Topics)Chapter 10 Review1. Given the first few terms of a sequence, determine a formula for the general term.2. Given a sequence, find its limit or determine that it is divergent.3. Determine whether a sequence is monotone or strictly monotone or neither.a. Consider differences of successive terms.b. Consider ratios of successive termsc. Consider the derivative of the associated continuous function.4. Determine if a monotone sequence is convergent or divergent.5. Find several partial sums of a series and use the nth partial sum to determine if a series converges or diverges.6. Evaluate the sum of a geometric series. 0 if 11diverges otherwisekkararr�=�<�=-����7. Tests For Convergence: Series w/ all terms non-negative (name, state, & use these)a. Divergence Testb.
