The document introduces the integral test, which can be used to determine if an infinite series is convergent or divergent. The integral test states that a series is convergent if the corresponding improper integral converges, and divergent if the improper integral diverges. Several examples demonstrate applying the integral test to various series by setting up and evaluating the corresponding improper integrals. The document also discusses using integrals to estimate the sum of a convergent series.
