Chapter 9, Problem 38

(choose chapter or problem)

Use the results in Exercise 36 to find the sum of each series.

\(\text { (a) } \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{k+1} \frac{1}{k}=1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}+\cdots\)


\(\text { (b) } \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{(e-1)^{k}}{k e^{k}}=\frac{e-1}{e}+\frac{(e-1)^{2}}{2\left(e^{2}\right)}-\frac{(e-1)^{3}}{3\left(e^{3}\right)}+\cdots\)
