For each series in Exercises 44–47, do each of the following:
(a) Use the integral test to show that the series converges.
(b) Use the 10th term in the sequence of partial sums to approximate the sum of the series.
(c) Use Theorem 7.31 to find a bound on the tenth remainder .
(d) Use your answers from parts (b) and (c) to find an interval containing the sum of the series.
(e) Find the smallest value of n so that.
Prove that if converges to L and converges to M , then the series.
Express each of the repeating decimals in Exercises 71–78 as a geometric series and as the quotient of two integers reduced to lowest terms.
Leila, in her capacity as a population biologist in Idaho, is trying to figure out how many salmon a local hatchery should release annually in order to revitalize the fishery. She knows that ifsalmon spawn in Redfish Lake in a given year, then only fish will return to the lake from the offspring of that run, because of all the dams on the rivers between the sea and the lake. Thus, if she adds the spawn from h fish, from a hatchery, then the number of fish that return from that run k will be .
(a) Show that the sustained number of fish returning approaches as k→∞.
(b) Evaluate .
(c) How should Leila choose h, the number of hatchery fish to raise in order to hold the number of fish returning in each run at some constant P?
