Limit Comparison Test - Proof

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:

    The thing with Catholicism, the same as all religions, is that it teaches what should be, which seems rather incorrect. This is “what should be.” Now, if you’re taught to live up to a “what should be” that never existed—only an occult superstition, no proof of this “should be”Mthen you can sit on a jury and indict easily, you can cast the first stone, you can burn Adolf Eichmann, like that!
    Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)

    To cease to admire is a proof of deterioration.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    If some books are deemed most baneful and their sale forbid, how, then, with deadlier facts, not dreams of doting men? Those whom books will hurt will not be proof against events. Events, not books, should be forbid.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
