Answer:

X = 21/4 - 7/4 = 14/4 = 7/2 = 3 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

X + (2 and 1/2) - 3/4 = 5 and 1/4

X + 2 and 2/4  - 3/4 = 5 and 1/4  <--- common denominator

X + 10/4 - 3/4 = 21/4

X + 7/4 = 21/4

X = 21/4 - 7/4 = 14/4 = 7/2 = 3 and 1/2

Determine whether the following series converge or diverge
Mars2501 [29]
An alternating series \sum\limits_n(-1)^na_n converges if |(-1)^na_n|=|a_n| is monotonic and a_n\to0 as n\to\infty. Here a_n=\dfrac1{\ln(n+1)}.

Let f(x)=\ln(x+1). Then f'(x)=\dfrac1{x+1}, which is positive for all x>-1, so \ln(x+1) is monotonically increasing for x>-1. This would mean \dfrac1{\ln(x+1)} must be a monotonically decreasing sequence over the same interval, and so must a_n.

Because a_n is monotonically increasing, but will still always be positive, it follows that a_n\to0 as n\to\infty.

So, \sum\limits_n(-1)^na_n converges.
