Question
NUMBER 5 part (b). Step by step with small along explanation.
![**Problem 5**
(a) **Briefly explain** why each of the series below either **converges** or **diverges.**
\[
\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^{1/2}}
\]
\[
\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^n \cdot n^2}{3n^2 + 1}
\]
(b) Looking at part (a), find \( s_{20} \) and \( s_{21} \) for the series that converges.
(c) How is the sum of a convergent alternating series related to \( s_{20} \) and \( s_{21} \)?](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/14b65783-eb23-4822-951c-32d4f7635fee/e63f19ec-57e8-4ec1-95d5-9554209e141d/rzxjhd_processed.jpeg)
