State whether the statement “An infinite geometric series that does not have a sum is called a partial sum “is true or false.
Answer to Problem 8SGR
This is a false statement, Divergent series.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An infinite geometric series that has a sum is called a convergent series.
Concept Used:
There is a simple test for determining whether a geometric series converges or diverges; if -1 < r <1, then the infinite series will converge.
If r lies outside this interval, then the infinite series will diverge. Test for convergence. If r <-1 or r > 1, then the infinite geometric series diverges.
An infinite geometric series that does not have a sum is called a Divergent series.
Thus, this is a false statement, Divergent series.
