009C Sample Final 1

This is a sample, and is meant to represent the material usually covered in Math 9C for the final. An actual test may or may not be similar. Click on the  boxed problem numbers  to go to a solution.

 Problem 1 

Compute

a) $\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }{\frac {3-2n^{2}}{5n^{2}+n+1}}$

b) $\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\bigg (}{\frac {1}{2^{n}}}-{\frac {1}{2^{n+1}}}{\bigg )}$

 Problem 3 

Determine whether the following series converges or diverges.
