Read each question carefully and provide your answer in the space provided. Show all your work for full credit.
1. The Alternating Series Remainder Theorem states that for a convergent alternating series, the absolute value of the remainder R_n is less than or equal to the absolute value of the first term.
2. For the theorem to apply, the terms of the alternating series must be in magnitude and approach zero.
3. Consider the alternating series Σ (from n=1 to infinity) (-1)^(n+1) / n. If we approximate the sum using the first 4 terms, what is the maximum error in this approximation according to the Alternating Series Remainder Theorem?
4. Which of the following conditions is NOT required for the Alternating Series Remainder Theorem to be applicable?
The terms are alternating in sign.
The absolute value of the terms are decreasing.
The limit of the n-th term as n approaches infinity is zero.
The series converges absolutely.
5. The Alternating Series Remainder Theorem provides the exact value of the remainder.
True
False
6. For the series Σ (from n=1 to infinity) (-1)^(n) / (2n+1), determine the number of terms required to approximate the sum with an error less than 0.01.
