Integral Test

The document discusses the integral test for convergence, which is a method used to test if an infinite series of monotonically decreasing positive terms converges. It involves checking if the integral of the function from 1 to infinity converges. Specifically: 1. The integral test can be used when the terms are positive, continuous, and decreasing as x increases from 1 to infinity. 2. If the definite integral of the function from 1 to infinity converges, then the original series converges. 3. The document provides examples of applying the integral test to determine if infinite series converge or diverge.

INTEGRAL TEST
FOR CONVERGENCE
It is the branch of calculus

INTEGRAL where we study integrals and


their properties. Integration is
an essential concept which is
CALCULUS the inverse process of
differentiation.
It diverges at ꝏ
and it converges
if there is a value

integral test for convergence is a


method used to test infinite series of
infinite series of monotonous terms for
INTEGRAL TEST FOR convergence. It was developed by Colin
CONVERGENCE Maclaurin and Augustin-Louis Cauchy
and is sometimes known as the
Maclaurin–Cauchy test.
INTEGRAL TEST FOR an = f (n)
CONVERGENCE
In order to apply integral
test, the function must be:
1. Positive
2. Continuous
3. Decreasing
x≥1 [ 1, ꝏ ]
If all of the requirements are
satisfied we will now proceed
INTEGRAL TEST FOR to getting the definite integral
of the equation.
CONVERGENCE

Where:
b is the upper limit
a is the lower limit
f(x) is the function
F(x) is the integral of the function
F(b) is when we substitute b to x
F(a) is when we subsitute a to x
