(a) using computer or tables (or see chapter 7, section 11), verify that p[infinity] n=1 1/n2 = π2/6=1.6449+, and also verify that the error in approximating the sum of the series by the first five terms is approximately 0.1813. (b) by computer or tables verify that p[infinity] n=1(1/n2)(1/2)n = π2/12−(1/2)(ln 2)2 = 0.5822+, and that the sum of the first five terms is 0.5815+. (c) prove theorem (14.4). hint: the error is | p[infinity] n+1 anxn|. use the fact that the absolute value of a sum is less than or equal to the sum of the absolute values. then use the fact that |an+1|≤|an| to replace all an by an+1, and write the appropriate inequality. sum the geometric series to get the result.

The management of a supermarket wants to adopt a new promotional policy of giving a free gift to every customer who spends more than a certain amount per visit at this supermarket. the expectation of the management is that after this promotional policy is advertised, the expenditures for all customers at this supermarket will be normally distributed with a mean of $95 and a standard deviation of $20. if the management wants to give free gifts to at most 10% of the customers, what should the amount be above which a customer would receive a free gift?
