Here's the Solution to this Question

(a) 5\sum_{k=1}^{+\infty}(k+1)=5\, lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}\sum_{k=1}^{n}(k+1)=5\, lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}\frac{(n+2)(n+1)}{2}=+\infty

(b) 4\sum_{j=0}^{+\infty}(-2)^j=4\, lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}\sum_{j=0}^{n}(-2)^j\, =lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}\frac{(-2)^{n+1}-1}{-3}=\infty

(c) 10\sum_{i=1}^{+\infty}3=+\infty

(d) 8\sum_{j=0}^{+\infty}(2^{j+1}-2^{j})=8\,\,lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}\sum_{j=0}^{n}(2^{j+1}-2^{j})=

=8\,\,lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}(2^{n+1}-1)=+\infty
