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 fact that several men were able to become infatuated with that latrine is truly the proof of the decline of the men of this century.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “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)

    “War is a beastly business, it is true, but one proof we are human is our ability to learn, even from it, how better to exist.”
    —M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
