STRATEGY FOR TESTING SERIES 1. Check for known series. p-series converges if . diverges if . (Note: When ‚ the series is the harmonic series.) geometric series converges if . diverges if . telescoping series converges if a real number. diverges otherwise. 2. Use a test. NOTE: When testing a series for convergence or divergence‚ two components must be shown: (i) State the test that is used: “Therefore‚ the series [converges/diverges] by the [name of test].” (ii)

where animals are forced to swallow large amounts of a test chemical to determine what dose causes death. In tests of potential carcinogens‚ subjects are given a substance every day for two years. Others tests involve killing pregnant animals and testing their fetuses. The real life applications for some of the tested substances are as trivial as an “improved” laundry detergent‚ new eye shadow‚ or

Testing a Claim It is possible to test a claim using a confidence interval. The logic is very simple and straightforward. Assume we use StatCrunch to create a 95% confidence interval for the number of Facebook friends for Kaplan University MM207 students and find that the interval is between 75 friends and to 125 friends. Now‚ one of your classmates claims that the average number of Facebook friends is 150. Does this claim make sense in light of your confidence interval? No it does not. If a claim

Carbohydrate Fermentation Testing Questions A. What is fermentation? It is a metabolic process that allows the production of ATP without need for oxygen B. Why is it important not to incubate the fermentation tubes beyond 24 hours? You may not get accurate results. Although sugar is the primary nutrient used‚ when a microbe runs out of it‚ protein or other nutrients will be attacked This causes changes in the color of the medium because of the pH indicator added to detect acid production.

Water Testing Lab Conclusion In this lab‚ chemical tests were used to check for the presence of calcium‚ chloride‚ and sulfate ions in water samples. To do this‚ the testers started with five samples: a reference‚ a sample of only the chemical being tested for‚ a control‚ distilled water‚ two home water samples‚ and a school water sample. To test for the ions in the water‚ a chemical that would react with the ion and create a precipitate was added. If the precipitate was not easily visible‚ a

I have failed many tests. Does that convey that I am not as knowledgeable as others who pass all the tests? Students are forced to memorize information quickly for standardized tests rather than take the time to fully understand concepts. What we call learning is slowly diminishing as more standardized tests make their way into the schools. Students are pressured to cram the night before big tests and once they receive their grade‚ they forget what they memorized soon after. Standardized tests should

Not only are these test designed to sort and categorize children‚ but it also causes certain schools to be closed because of low scores. As Alfie Kohn says‚ “Standardized testing has swelled and mutated‚ like a creature in one of those old horror movies‚ to the point that it now threatens to swallow our schools whole.” Imagine how it might feel for a child who doesn’t live in the best neighbor and gets their school closed
