Solution :

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$           $a_n= \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n} \ \ \ \ \ a_{n+1}= \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(n+1) ! 2^{n+1}}$

Error = $|a_{n+1}|$

Error ≤ 0.0001

$|\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!2^{n+1}}| \leq 0.0001$

$|\frac{1}{(n+1)!2^{n+1}}| \leq 10^{-4}$

$(n+1)! 2^{n+1} \geq 10000$

Now try, n ≥ 5

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$   = $\sum_{n=1 }^{5 } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$         (with error 0.0001)

 

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$   = $\frac{-1}{1!2}+\frac{1}{2!2^2}-\frac{1}{3! 2^3}+\frac{1}{4! 2^4}-\frac{1}{5! 2^5}$

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$ = 0.6065104

X^2+4+10=0
x=(-4(+/-)root16-40)/2, so we now know that the zeros are imaginary, because you can't square root a negative number and 16-40 is -24
so the two roots are…
