Zarkon, another series question.. sorry, im blanking out right now.

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Show that if Sum(a_n) diverges, and k does not equal 0, then Sum(k*a_n) diverges

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

i mean this is common sense, constant*infinity = infinity..

OpenStudy (zarkon):

diverges doesn't necessarily mean infinity.

OpenStudy (zarkon):

show the contrapositive if Sum(k*a_n) converges then Sum(a_n) converges.

OpenStudy (zarkon):

Sum(k*a_n) converges so s=Sum(k*a_n) =ksum(a_n) k not zero then sum(a_n)=s/k
