It's not clear what your series is, so I'm going to take a wild guess on what it is you mean:

1-\dfrac{1\times3}{3!}+\dfrac{1\times3\times5}{5!}-\dfrac{1\times3\times5\times7}{7!}+\cdots
=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{(2n-1)!}\prod_{k=1}^n(2k-1)

For the sum to be absolute convergent, the sum of the absolute value of the summand must converge, so you are really examining the convergence of

\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1{(2n-1)!}\prod_{k=1}^n(2k-1)

This is easily checked with the ratio test:

\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\left|\frac{\displaystyle\dfrac1{(2(n+1)-1)!}\prod_{k=1}^{n+1}(2k-1)}{\displaystyle\dfrac1{(2n-1)!}\prod_{k=1}^n(2k-1)}\right|=\lim_{n\to\infty}\left|\frac{\dfrac{1\times3\times5\times\cdots\times(2n-1)\times(2n+1)}{(2n+1)!}}{\dfrac{1\times3\times5\times\cdots\times(2n-1)}{(2n-1)!}}\right|
\displaystyle=\lim_{n\to\infty}\left|\frac{\dfrac{2n+1}{(2n+1)(2n)}}{\dfrac11}\right|=\lim_{n\to\infty}\dfrac1{2n}=0

Since \sum|a_n| converges by the ratio test, the series \sum a_n converges absolutely.

If you need 192 beads to make a necklace and bracelet and it takes 5 times more beads to make necklace than bracelet. How many b
Rasek [7]
192 = total beads

necklace + bracelet = 192

Let x equal the number of beads 

bracelet = 5x
necklace = x

5x + x = 192 

6x = 192

x = 32

It takes 32 beads to make a necklace

Micheal has been awarded a pay rise of 4%.His salary is £ 24 492 <br> What was his apart before?
Nesterboy [21]
Because there was a pay rise, we can write the equation as x+0.04x = 24.492 and solve for x.

x+0.04x = 24.492
1.04x = 24.492
x=23.55

His original pay was £23.55
