test the series for convergence or divergence using the alternating series test

the sum from n=1 to infinity of (-1)^n/(3n+1)

I said it converges, is this true?

If you have a geometric alternating series, and you prove that the series is converging by doing geometric series test, and NOT alternating series test, then does that allow you to say that the series converges ABSOLUTELY? Or

I'm studying infinite series and am really struggling with memorizing all the tests for convergence in my book, there's like 10 of them. I don't think I'm going to be successful in memorizing all of them. I will never be asked in
