Question Number 29500 by abdo imad last updated on 09/Feb/18

nature of the sequence  u_n = Σ_(k=2) ^n  (((−1)^k )/(kln(k))) .

$${nature}\:{of}\:{the}\:{sequence}\:\:{u}_{{n}} =\:\sum_{{k}=\mathrm{2}} ^{{n}} \:\frac{\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)^{{k}} }{{kln}\left({k}\right)}\:. \\ $$

let put v_k = (1/(kln(k))) for k≥2 we have lim_(k→∞) v_k =0 let   prove that (v_k )_k  is decreasing  we put f(t)= (1/(tln(t)))for t≥2  f^′ (t)=−((lnt+1)/((tln(t))^2 ))<0 for x≥2 so f is decreazingand  lim_(n→+∞)  u_n   =Σ_(k=2) ^∞  (−1)^k v_k  wich is a alternate serie  convergente so (u_n ) is convergent.

$${let}\:{put}\:{v}_{{k}} =\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{kln}\left({k}\right)}\:{for}\:{k}\geqslant\mathrm{2}\:{we}\:{have}\:{lim}_{{k}\rightarrow\infty} {v}_{{k}} =\mathrm{0}\:{let}\: \\ $$$${prove}\:{that}\:\left({v}_{{k}} \right)_{{k}} \:{is}\:{decreasing}\:\:{we}\:{put}\:{f}\left({t}\right)=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{tln}\left({t}\right)}{for}\:{t}\geqslant\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${f}^{'} \left({t}\right)=−\frac{{lnt}+\mathrm{1}}{\left({tln}\left({t}\right)\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }<\mathrm{0}\:{for}\:{x}\geqslant\mathrm{2}\:{so}\:{f}\:{is}\:{decreazingand} \\ $$$${lim}_{{n}\rightarrow+\infty} \:{u}_{{n}} \:\:=\sum_{{k}=\mathrm{2}} ^{\infty} \:\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)^{{k}} {v}_{{k}} \:{wich}\:{is}\:{a}\:{alternate}\:{serie} \\ $$$${convergente}\:{so}\:\left({u}_{{n}} \right)\:{is}\:{convergent}. \\ $$
