Test for absolute convergence: $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{2^n x^n}{ n^2 }$

Consider the sequence $ x_{n} = \frac{1}{n} $ if $n$ is odd and $x_{n} = 1$ if $n$ is even.

Consider the sequence $ x_{n} = \frac{1}{n} $ if $n$ is odd and $x_{n} = 0$ if $n$ is even.

Prove that $\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}$ is irrational without assuming any particular surd is irrational i.e. you must prove first that a surd

Prove that cubic equations (of real coefficients) must have at least one real root.
