(a) what is the difference between a sequence and a series? a sequence is an ordered list of numbers whereas a series is an unordered list of numbers. a series is an ordered list of numbers whereas a sequence is the sum of a list of numbers. a sequence is an unordered list of numbers whereas a series is the sum of a list of numbers. a series is an unordered list of numbers whereas a sequence is the sum of a list of numbers. a sequence is an ordered list of numbers whereas a series is the sum of a list of numbers. (b) what is a convergent series? what is a divergent series? a series is divergent if the sequence of partial sums is a convergent sequence. a series is convergent if it is not divergent. a series is divergent if the nth term converges to zero. a series is convergent if it is not divergent. a series is convergent if the sequence of partial sums is a convergent sequence. a series is divergent if it is not convergent. a series is convergent if the nth term converges to zero. a series is divergent if it is not convergent. a convergent series is a series for which lim n → ∞ an exists. a series is convergent if it is not divergent.

Answer: • (a) A sequence is an ordered list of numbers whereas a series is the sum of a list of numbers.  • (b) A series is divergent if the sequence of partial sums is a convergent sequence. A series is divergent if it is not convergent.  Step-by-step explanation: A sequence is a list of ordered numbers. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.... is a sequence. The numbers are listed in a specific order when we count. In contrast, a series is the sum of the numbers in a sequence. For this multiple choice, choose the best answer that defines what a sequence is. (a) What is the difference between a sequence and a series?  • A series is an unordered list of numbers whereas a sequence is the sum of a list of numbers.  • A sequence is an ordered list of numbers whereas a series is the sum of a list of numbers.  • A series is an ordered list of numbers whereas a sequence is the sum of a list of numbers.  • A sequence is an ordered list of numbers whereas a series is an unordered list of numbers.  • A sequence is an unordered list of numbers whereas a series is the sum of a list of numbers.  When working with sequences and series, we look at what happens at negative and positive infinity. When a series converges, it approaches a finite number. When a series diverges, it does not approach a finite number but infinity. (b) What is a convergent series? What is a divergent series?  • A series is divergent if the nth term converges to zero. A series is convergent if it is not divergent.  • A series is convergent if the nth term converges to zero. A series is divergent if it is not convergent.  • A convergent series is a series for which lim n → ∞ an exists. A series is convergent if it is not divergent.  • A series is convergent if the sequence of partial sums is a convergent sequence. A series is divergent if it is not convergent.  • A series is divergent if the sequence of partial sums is a convergent sequence. A series is divergent if it is not convergent.
