MATH 2414 Section 10.3-10.4 Quiz

For 1 – 2, determine if the following series converge or diverge. If possible, evaluate the
series. Look carefully at where the index begins.
( −2 )
k
∞

1) ∑
k =1 5k −1

∞
24
2) ∑ ( 4k − 1)( 4k + 3)
k =2

For 3, use the divergence test to determine whether the series diverges or state that it is
inconclusive. You must show all work.
k
∞
 k +3
3) ∑  
k =1  k 
For 4, determine the convergence or divergence of the following series, using the integral
test. You must state and prove the conditions of the test as shown in the lecture.
You may skip the Divergence Test.

4) Integral Test: ∑ 2ke
k =1
−3 k
