Consider the series $\sum _ { n = 1 } ^ { \infty } ( - 1 ) ^ { n - 1 } \frac { 1 } { 2 n - 1 }$ .(a) Show that the series is convergent, but not absolutely convergent.(b) Calculate the sum of the first 9 terms to approximate the sum of the series.(c) Is the approximation in part (b) an overestimate or an underestimate?
(d) Estimate the error involved in the approximation from part (b).
