Explanation & Answer
The first series is shown to be divergent by comparing it to the harmonic series which is known to diverge.
The second series is shown to be divergent by using the root test.
The third series is convergent since it satisfies the ratio test. In addition, it is possible to find the sum of the series by using the sum of geometric progression formula.
The fourth series is shown to be absolutely convergent by the root test.

MTH 218 University of Phoenix Week 4 Test Selection Statistics Discussion
Consider a situation that you might want to study through a statistical lens. The situation would require you to study a small sample and make an inference to the population. For example, you might want to understand how likely children are to complete their homework when considering their individual characteristics or maybe you want to understand if children who eat broccoli are more likely to complete their homework than those who do not.
Respond to the following in a minimum of 100 words without reference:
How would you select a test that was appropriate to answer your question?
How would you rule out tests that were not appropriate to answer your question?
Post 2 replies to classmates or your faculty member. Be constructive and professional. This is a response from another student that I need to reply to in a minimum of 100 words without reference:

1 - is the proportion of kids who eat broccoli who finish their homework.
2 - is the proportion of kids who do not eat broccoli who finish their homework.
Null Hypothesis
H0: 1 = 2
The proportion of kids who eat broccoli who finish their homework is equal to the proportion of kids who do not eat broccoli who finish their homework.
Alternative Hypothesis
H1: 1 > 2
The proportion of kids who eat broccoli who finish their homework is greater than the proportion of kids who do not eat broccoli who finish their homework.
Are children who eat broccoli more likely to complete their homework than children who do not eat broccoli.
Outcome: Did you complete your homework? (yes or no)
Predictor: Do you eat broccoli? (yes or no)
Two populations: Kids who eat broccoli and kids who do not eat broccoli.
We need a test that can compare two proportions. Two proportion Z-test as long as we have enough data. We need a sample of about five kids in each group who report finishing or not finishing their homework.
We can rule out the test that needs a continuous outcome. (t-test, c, etc.) "

Cuyamaca College Mod 18 Reducing Health Care Costs Questions
PromptThe Pew Research Center reported in 2018 that 68% of U.S. adults rated "reducing health care costs" as a national priority. This year a survey is conducted with a national sample of 1,505 U.S. adults selected by a combination of landline and cell phone random digit dials. This year's survey finds that 70% of the sample says that "reducing health care costs" is a national priority.We test the following hypotheses:H 0: The proportion of U.S. adults this year who rate "reducing health care costs" as a national priority is still 0.68.H a: The proportion of U.S. adults this year who rate "reducing health care costs" as a national priority is greater than 0.68.The P-value is 0.045. At a 5% significance level, we would reject the null hypothesis and concluded that the proportion of U.S. adults this year who rate "reducing health care costs" as a national priority is greater than 0.68.Explain the P-value in the context of this issue.
