QUESTION 1:
∑( )
SOLUTION:
∑( )
As n → ∞, fₙ(x) → 0 because n² → ∞.
The series converges point wise for x > 0 because the terms decay rapidly as n increases.
Additionally, we can compare fₙ(x) with 1/n², which forms a p-series with p = 2 > 1 (a
convergent series).
∑( )
1. Uniform Convergence
Uniform convergence depends on whether the convergence of ∑ fₙ(x) is uniform with respect to
x.
To test this, we can use the Weierstrass M-test or consider the supremum of the remainder terms.
Weierstrass M-test
and ∑ Mₙ converges.
Thus, the Weierstrass M-test guarantees that the series ∑ fₙ(x) converges uniformly on any
domain x > 0.
Supremum Check:
The supremum decreases as 1/n², and since ∑ 1/n² converges, the series converges uniformly on
(0, ∞).
The analysis above shows that the supremum of fₙ(x) is bounded by 1/n², which leads to uniform
convergence.
On [0, ∞):
However, uniform convergence on [0, ∞) fails because near x = 0, the terms fₙ(x) can approach
1/n², which depends on x.
Conclusion:
The series
∑( )
∑( )
fₙ(x) = .
By the comparison test, the series ∑ fₙ(x) converges pointwise for any fixed x.
Step 2: Uniform Convergence
To determine whether the convergence is uniform, we analyze whether the rate of convergence
of fₙ(x) is independent of x.
Weierstrass M-Test
Thus:
Since ∑ converges, the Weierstrass M-Test ensures that the series∑ cos ( n x
)/ n³ converges uniformly for all x.
Step 3: Supremum Check
Conclusion :
PART (C)
∑( )
Solution :
1. Pointwise Convergence
The denominator n³ + x³ > 0 for all n, x > 0. As n → ∞, n³ → ∞, so fₙ(x) → 0 for any fixed x > 0.
For fixed x > 0, x>0, the term 1 / n³ + x³ is dominated by 1 n³, which forms a convergent p-series
(p = 3 > 1).
Thus, the series ∑ fₙ(x) converges pointwise for all x > 0.
1. Uniform Convergence
Weierstrass M-Test
Thus:
∣ fₙ(x) ∣ ≤ 1/ n^3.
∣fₙ(x) ∣≤ n^3 1 .
By the Weierstrass M-Test, the series ∑ n = 1 ∞ fₙ(x) converges uniformly on any interval where
x > 0.
However, near x = 0, the term 1/n³ + x³ behaves like 1/ n³, and there is no dependence of
convergence speed on x.
Conclusion
The series
∑ ( )converges:
PART (d)
∑( )
1. Pointwise Convergence
fₙ(x) = .
fₙ(x) = .
For x = 0, x=0, fₙ (0) = e^ − n ⋅ 0 n^2 = 1, n^2, and the series ∑ converges (as a
p-series with p = 2 > 1).
Thus, the series ∑ converges pointwise for all x ≥ 0.
1. Uniform Convergence
Weierstrass M-Test
∣ fₙ(x) ∣ = e^ − n / n^2.
∣fₙ(x) ∣= e^ − n / n^2. .
∣ fₙ(x) ∣ ≤ 1 /n^2.
∣fₙ(x) ∣≤ 1 /n^2
By the Weierstrass M-Test, the series ∑ n = 1 ∞ fₙ(x) converges uniformly on [0, ∞).
Supremum Check
At x = 0, ∣ fₙ (0) ∣ = 1/n^2.
Thus:
Conclusion
The ∑ converges:
Pointwise for all x ≥ 0.
Uniformly on [0, ∞), as shown by the Weierstrass M-Test and supremum analysis.
Question 02:
To evaluate the integral ∫ x e^ (-nx) sin (nx) dx from 0 to 1, we can use integration by parts.
Let u = x and dv = e^ (-nx) sin (nx) dx. Then, du = dx and v = ∫ e^ (-nx) sin (nx) dx.
The integral of e^ (-nx) sin (nx) can be found using standard methods for integrals of products of
exponentials and trigonometric functions.
After evaluating the integral, we get: ∫ x e^ (-nx) sin (nx) dx from 0 to 1 = 1/ (2n^2) e^ (-n) (n +
sin (n)).
The series can be approximated numerically by computing the sum of the first few terms.
PART (B)
∑ ( )
To evaluate the series ∑∫ x 3e^ (-nx) dx from 0 to 1, we can follow these steps:
To evaluate the integral ∫ x 3e^ (-nx) dx from 0 to 1, we can use integration by parts.
Let u = x^3 and dv = e^ (-nx) dx. Then, du = 3x^2 dx and v = -1/n e^ (-nx).
After evaluating the integral, we get: ∫ x 3e^ (-nx) dx from 0 to 1 = 3/ (n^4) - 6/ (n^5) + 6/ (n^6)
e^ (-n).
Now, we need to evaluate the series ∑ [3/ (n^4) - 6/ (n^5) + 6/ (n^6) e^ (-n)] from n = 1 to ∞.
Step 5: Numerical Approximation
The series can be approximated numerically by computing the sum of the first few terms.
