Proof
Because we know that for all exists an such that for all we have that, or what is the same
As we can choose such that is positive. So and by the direct comparison test, if converges then so does .
Similarly, so if converges, again by the direct comparison test, so does .
That is both series converge or both series diverge.

Famous quotes containing the word proof:
“If we view our children as stupid, naughty, disturbed, or guilty of their misdeeds, they will learn to behold themselves as foolish, faulty, or shameful specimens of humanity. They will regard us as judges from whom they wish to hide, and they will interpret everything we say as further proof of their unworthiness. If we view them as innocent, or at least merely ignorant, they will gain understanding from their experiences, and they will continue to regard us as wise partners.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
“The chief contribution of Protestantism to human thought is its massive proof that God is a bore.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“He who has never failed somewhere, that man can not be great. Failure is the true test of greatness. And if it be said, that continual success is a proof that a man wisely knows his powers,—it is only to be added, that, in that case, he knows them to be small.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
