8. The series n=1∑∞np1 is known as a p-series. Assume that p>0. Use the Integral test to determine values of p for which the series converges and values of p for which the series diverges. Diverges for p≤1; converges for p>1 9. Consider once again the p-series n=1∑∞np1. Remove the restriction p>0. How will the series behave for values of p≤0 ? Explain. The p-series will diverge when p<0 by the divergence test. Thus, we can conclude that the p-series converges for all p>1 and diverges for all p≤1 (not just positive p.)
