Does the series cos n /(n^3) converge or diverge?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

n^3 would converge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what test would you use to prove it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

p test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am assuming it is from 1 to infinity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, it would be converge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep! I just don't know how to prove it with a test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

start with just 1/n^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you use the comparison test?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, 1/n^3 always converge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cos (x)<1

It does not require a paragraph of an explanation, you could either use the link I showed you for an example as they do some hardcore calculating or you can follow what modphysnoob is doing.
