Answer

(4) absolutely convergent

Steps

Step 1 :First, we will determine the convergence of each series using the appropriate tests:

Step 2 :For series (1), we can use the comparison test.

Step 3 :For series (2), we can use the limit comparison test with the series n=11n.

Step 4 :For series (3), we can use the alternating series test.

Step 5 :For series (4), we can use the ratio test.

Step 6 :Applying these tests, we find the following results:

Step 7 :The series n=1ln(1+1n) diverges.

Step 8 :The series n=1(1)nn+1nn is conditionally convergent.

Step 9 :The series n=1(1)nsin(1n2) is absolutely convergent.

Step 10 :The series n=1(1)n2021n2022n+2020n is absolutely convergent.

Step 11 :Final Answer:

Step 12 :(1) diverges

Step 13 :(2) conditionally convergent

Step 14 :(3) absolutely convergent

Step 15 :(4) absolutely convergent
