Series & The Divergence Test | Calculus 2 Lesson 20 - JK Math
Показать описание
Infinite Series & The Divergence Test (Calculus 2 Lesson 20)
In this video we learn about the concept of series and a couple ways to determine their convergence/divergence. Simply put, a series is the sum of the terms of a sequence. We can determine the convergence of a series by looking at the sequence of partial sums for the series. If that sequence converges, then the series converges, but if the sequence diverges then the series also diverges. Additionally, we look at the Divergence Test which is a method used to quickly determine if a series diverges by use of a limit. We look at several examples and explain the solution step by step.
This series is designed to help students understand the concepts of Calculus 2 at a grounded level. No long, boring, and unnecessary explanations, just what you need to know at a reasonable and digestible pace, with the goal of each video being shorter than the average school lecture!
Calculus 2 requires a solid understanding of calculus 1, precalculus, and algebra concepts and techniques. This includes limits, differentiation, basic integration, factoring, equation manipulation, trigonometric functions, logarithms, graphing, and much more. If you are not familiar with these prerequisite topics, be sure to learn them first!
