the series converges.<br />

For case (ii), by Limit Comparison Test with 1 n<br />

Proof: Sincen −1−1/n ≥ n −1 for all n, the series diverges.<br />

Proof: Since<br />

lim 1<br />

n→ n log1 1/n 1,<br />

we know that the series diverges.<br />

(h) ∑ n2 logn log n<br />

Proof: Since the identity a logb b loga ,wehave<br />

log n logn nlog logn<br />

So, the series converges.<br />

(i) ∑ n3 nlognlog logn p<br />

≥ n 2 as n ≥ n 0 .<br />

Proof: We consider 3 cases: (i) p ≤ 0, (ii) 0 p 1 and (iii) p 1.
