Describe the difference between \(\lim _{n \rightarrow \infty} a_{n}=5\) and \(\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_{n}=5\).
In Exercises \(103-106,\) use the formula for the \(n\) th partial sum of a geometric series $$\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} a r^{i}=\frac{a\left(1-r^{n}\right)}{1-r}$$ The winner of a \(\$ 1,000,000\) sweepstakes will be paid \(\$ 50,000\) per year for 20 years. The money earns \(6 \%\) interest per year. The present value of the winnings is \(\sum_{n=1}^{20} 50,000\left(\frac{1}{1.06}\right)^{n}\) Compute the present value and interpret its meaning.
Prove that if \(\left\\{s_{n}\right\\}\) converges to \(L\) and \(L>0,\) then there exists a number \(N\) such that \(s_{n}>0\) for \(n>N\).
