Consider two positive-term series ∑an\sum a_n and ∑bn\sum b_n. Which of the following sets of conditions is sufficient to guarantee that ∑n=1∞an\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n converges? a) 0≤bn≤an0 \le b_n \le a_n for all nn and ∑bn\sum b_n converges. b) 0≤an≤bn0 \le a_n \le b_n for all nn and ∑bn\sum b_n converges. c) an≤bna_n \le b_n for all nn and ∑bn\sum b_n converges (no restriction on signs). d) 0≤an≤bn0 \le a_n \le b_n for all nn and ∑bn\sum b_n diverges.
