1. (10%) Find the values of real number p for which the series is divergent, conditionally convergent, or absolutely convergent.
(a)
∑∞ n=2
(−1)n 1 n(ln n)p. (b)
∑∞ n=1
(−1)nsin ( 1

)· ln n.
Sol:
(a) Since d dx
( 1
x(ln x)p )
=−(ln x)p+ x· p(ln x)p−1 1x
x2(ln x)2p =−(ln x)p−1(ln x + p)
x2(ln x)2p < 0 for x > e−p. Hence ∀p ∈ R, we have 1
n(ln n)p is decreasing for n large enough. (n > e−p) If p > 0, then lim
n→∞
1
n(ln n)p = 0. And if p < 0, then by L’hospital Law, we have
nlim→∞
1
n(ln n)p = lim
n→∞

n→∞
(−1)[−p]+1(p)(p + 1)(p + 2)· · · (p + [−p])(ln n)−p−([−p]+1)
n = 0.
Hence by alternating series test ,
∑∞ n=2
(−1)n 1
n(ln n)p is convergent for all p∈ R.
Now consider an ≡ ¯¯
¯¯(−1)n 1 n(ln n)p
¯¯¯¯ = 1
n(ln n)p. Suppose p 6= 1, since we have proven an is decreasing for n large enough, thus ”integral test” is available here

⇒
∑∞ n=2
1
n(ln n)p , is convergnet for p > 1
∑∞ n=2
1
n(ln n)p , is divergnet for p >< 1 .
Suppose p = 1, we also use integral test, since

¯¯ = lim
b→∞(ln b− ln(ln 2)) = ∞.
So we get the answer is
∑∞ n=2
(−1)n 1
n(ln n)p is
absolutely convergent for p > 1 (2.5 pts) conditionally convergent for p≤ 1 (2.5 pts).
(b) For p≤ 0, since lim
n→∞sin( 1
np) ln n6= 0, thus
∑∞ n=1
(−1)nsin( 1
np) ln n is divergent.
Now suppose p > 0, by limit comparison test, since
nlim→∞
sin(n1p) ln n
1
npln n = 1 ∀p ∈ R+= (0,∞) Thus we can examine
∑∞ n=1
1
np ln n to get the answer.
For 0 < p≤ 1 ,by comparison , since ln n np ≥ 1
np for n > 3, and
∑∞ n=1
1
np is divergent for 0 < p≤ 1, so is ∑∞
n=1
ln n np . For p > 1 then
ln n np = 1
np+12 · ln n np−12 . Since lim
n→∞
ln n
np−12 = 0, thus ln n
np−12 < 1 for n large enough, that is ln n
np < n−p+12 for n large enough, since p + 1
2 > 1, thus by compare with
∑∞ n=1
n−p+12 , we get
∑∞ n=1
ln n np converges for p > 1.
So we get the answer is
∑∞ n=1
(−1)nsin( 1
np) ln n is
divergent for p≤ 0 (1 pt)
conditionally convergent for 0 < p≤ 1 (2 pts) absolutely convergent for p > 1 (2 pts)

x2+ 1 < 0 , ∀x > 0.
That is , a≡ ln(1 + tan−1(1

(a) Find fx(0, 0) and fy(0, 0).
(b) Let L(x, y) be the linear approximation of f at (0, 0). Does lim
(x,y)→(0,0)
|f(x, y) − L(x, y)|√ x2+ y2 exist?
(c) Find the directional derivative of f at (0, 0) in the direction h1, mi.
(d) Is f (x, y) differentiable at (0, 0)?
Sol:
(a) By definition of partial derivative, fx(0, 0) = lim
h→0
f (h, 0)− f(0, 0)
h = 0.
Similarly fy(0, 0) = 0.
(b) By definition, L(x, y) = f (0, 0) + fx(0, 0)x + fy(0, 0)y.
Since fx(0, 0) = fy(0, 0) = 0, we have L(x, y) = 0. Therefore
lim
(x,y)→(0,0)
|f(x, y) − L(x, y)|√
x2+ y2 = lim

√2. Along x = 0,
lim
(x,y)→(0,0)
|x13y23|
√x2+ y2 = 0.
Therefore, the limit does not exist.
(c) First normalize the vector < 1, m > to unit vector u = 1
√1 + m2 < 1, m >. By definition of the directional derivative, we have
Duf (0, 0) = lim
t→0
f (0 + √ t

1+m2)− f(0, 0) t
= lim
t→0
m23
√1 + m2 = m23
√1 + m2.
(d) By (c), Duf (0, 0) = m23
√1 + m2. By (a), 5f(0, 0) · u = 0.
Therefore,5f(0, 0)·u 6= Duf (0, 0) in general. Hence f is not differentiable at (0, 0).
Grading Policy :
Question (a) worth 2 pts. Only correct answer would get 2 pts.
Question (b) worth 5 pts. You would get 1 pt if you write down the linear approximation L(x, y) of f at (0, 0). Another 4 pts depends on your answer to the limit

Let f (x, y, z) = x2+ y2+ z2, g(x, y, z) = x + y + 2z, h(x, y, z) = x2+ 2y2+ 4z2− 35 Applying the method of Lagrange multipliers, we need to solve

Utilizing (4) and (5) and considering (1)·x+(2)·y +(3)·z we have x2+ y2+ z2 = 35µ
Case 1: λ = 0
If µ = 1⇒ y = z = 0, ∴ x = 0 by (1), but contradicts (5). Similarly, µ = 1
2 ⇒ x = z = 0 and µ = 1
4 ⇒ x = y = 0 both lead to contradiction.
If µ6= 1,1 2,1
4 ⇒ x = y = z = 0, also a contradiction.
∴ λ 6= 0 Case 2: λ6= 0 Substitute x = λ/2

Arranging the numerator, we have 20µ2− 23µ + 6 = 0
