Answer

$n\gt 1.07\times 10^{11301}$ Hence, it is proved we need more than $10^{11301}$ terms

Work Step by Step

$R_{n}\leq \int_{n}^{\infty}f(x) dx \lt 0.000000005$ $\lim\limits_{a \to \infty} \int_{n}^{a}x^{-1.001} dx\lt 0.000000005$ $\lim\limits_{a \to \infty}[-\frac{1}{-0.001}x^{-0.001}]_{n}^{a}\lt 0.000000005$ $\frac{1000}{n^{0.001}}\lt 0.000000005$ $n^{0.001}\gt \frac{1000}{0.000000005}$ $n\gt 1.07\times 10^{11301}$ Hence, it is proved we need more than $10^{11301}$ terms
