If your device is not in landscape mode many of the equations will run off the side of your device (you should be able to scroll/swipe to see them) and some of the menu items will be cut off due to the narrow screen width.

Section 7.9 : Comparison Test for Improper Integrals

Use the Comparison Test to determine if the following integrals converge or diverge.

$\displaystyle \int_{1}^{\infty }{{\frac{1}{{{x^3} + 1}}\,dx}}$ Solution
$\displaystyle \int_{3}^{\infty }{{\frac{{{z^2}}}{{{z^3} - 1}}\,dz}}$ Solution
$\displaystyle \int_{4}^{\infty }{{\frac{{{{\bf{e}}^{ - y}}}}{y}\,dy}}$ Solution
$\displaystyle \int_{1}^{\infty }{{\frac{{z - 1}}{{{z^4} + 2{z^2}}}\,dz}}$ Solution
$\displaystyle \int_{6}^{\infty }{{\frac{{{w^2} + 1}}{{{w^3}\left( {{{\cos }^2}\left( w \right) + 1} \right)}}\,dw}}$ Solution
