Answer

TRUE

Work Step by Step

Yes, if a finite amount of terms are added to a convergent series, the series remains convergent. A finite amount of terms will simply add a constant value to the sum. Therefore, if the series was previously convergent it will remain so and vice versa. Convergence/divergence has to do with sums of infinite amounts of values, not constant values. Hence, the statement is true.
