23–38. Divergence, Integral, and p-series Tests Use the Divergence Test, the Integral Test, or the p-series test to determine whether the following series converge.
∑ (k = 1 to ∞) 1 / ∛k

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the given series: \( \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{k}} \). This can be rewritten as \( \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{k^{1/3}} \).
Recognize that this is a p-series of the form \( \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{k^p} \) where \( p = \frac{1}{3} \).
Recall the p-series test: A p-series \( \sum \frac{1}{k^p} \) converges if and only if \( p > 1 \), and diverges otherwise.
Since \( p = \frac{1}{3} < 1 \), the p-series test indicates that the series diverges.
Optionally, you could confirm this result using the Integral Test by evaluating the improper integral \( \int_1^{\infty} \frac{1}{x^{1/3}} \, dx \) and checking if it converges or diverges.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Divergence Test

The Divergence Test states that if the limit of the terms of a series does not approach zero as k approaches infinity, the series diverges. It is a quick initial check but cannot confirm convergence if the limit is zero.

Integral Test

The Integral Test compares a series to an improper integral of a related continuous, positive, decreasing function. If the integral converges, the series converges; if the integral diverges, so does the series.

p-series Test

A p-series is of the form ∑ 1/k^p. It converges if p > 1 and diverges if p ≤ 1. This test helps quickly determine convergence for series with terms involving powers of k.
