What happens when you add an infinite number of progressively smaller terms?

• The sum becomes infinite.

• The sum can be finite.

• The sum becomes negative.

• The sum becomes zero.

What is the difference between a sequence and a series?

• A sequence is a sum of numbers, while a series is a list.

• A sequence is a list of terms, while a series is a product.

• A sequence is a list of numbers, while a series is their sum.

• A sequence is always finite, while a series is infinite.

What does the summation symbol 'sigma' represent in mathematics?

• It represents the subtraction of terms.

• It represents multiplication of terms.
