Svce Maths Unit II

The document contains questions about sequences, series, tests for convergence of series, and examples. It asks students to define sequences and series, state tests for convergence like the comparison test, ratio test, integral test, and Leibniz test. Students are asked to determine if example series converge or diverge using these tests, and to state conditions for absolute and conditional convergence. It contains problems involving p-series, geometric series, exponential series, and alternating series.
