How many terms of the series do we need to add in order to find the sum to the indicated accuracy?
The alternating series from n=1 to infinity of ((-1)^(n+1))/(n^2)
|error| less than 0.0399
i got it down to 1/n^2 is less than 0.0399 but i can't figure out if n = 5 or n=6... please help:(
I'm having a problem with estimating a function using a power series... the problem is
