Determine the improper integral $\int_0^{\infty} \frac{x-\sin x}{x^{7/2}}dx$ converge or diverge. Prove that please.

    "infinity" should be "\infty" and do you mean $x^{7/2}$ or $\frac{x^7}{2}$? (if its the first, enclose $7/2$ in curly braces: x^{7/2}2012-12-12

    You need to analyze the badness near $0$. My approach would be the Taylor series for sine. Informally, near $0$ the top behaves like $x^3/6$.2012-12-12
