Note that $s_3 = a_1+a_2+a_3$ and $s_1 = a_1$. Thus,

\begin{tabular}{rl}
$s_3$ &= $\cancel{a_1}+a_2+a_3$\\
$-(~ s_1$ &= $\cancel{a_1} ~)$\\
\hline
$s_3-s_1$ &= $a_2+a_3$\\

Using the formula for $s_n$ gives $s_3 = \answer[given]{1}$ and $s_1=\answer[given]{-1}$, so $a_1+a_2 = \answer[given]{2}$.
\[s_3 -s_1 = \left(\cancel{a_1}+ a_2+a_3\right) -\cancel{a_1} = a_2+a_3\]

Using the formula for $s_n$ gives $s_3 = \answer[given]{1}$ and $s_1=\answer[given]{-1}$, so $a_2+a_3 = \answer[given]{2}$.

To determine whether the series converges or diverges, complete the following argument.

The first step to try to determine if a series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}a_k$ converges is to consider the sequence of partial sums, defined by $s_n = \sum_{k=1}^{n} a_k = a_1+\ldots + a_n$ for $n \geq 1$, and to try to find an \emph{explicit} formula for $s_n$.
