Consider the series ∑n=1 ∞ an where
an=(5n+5)^(9n+1)/ 12^n
In this problem you must attempt to use the Ratio Test to decide
whether the series converges.
Compute
L= lim n→∞ ∣∣∣an+1/an∣∣
Enter the numerical value of the limit L if it converges, INF if
the limit for L diverges to infinity, MINF if it diverges to
negative infinity, or DIV if it diverges but not to infinity or
negative infinity.
L=
Which of the following statements is true?
A. The Ratio Test says that the series converges
absolutely.
B. The Ratio Test says that the series
diverges.
C. The Ratio Test says that the series converges
conditionally.
D. The Ratio Test is inconclusive, but the series
converges absolutely by another test or tests.
E. The Ratio Test is inconclusive, but the series
diverges by another test or tests.
F. The Ratio Test is inconclusive, but the series
converges conditionally by another test or tests.

An=1/n^8,Bn=1/n^5,Cn=1/n. Use the Limit Comparison Test to compare
the following series to any of the above series. For each of the
series below, you must enter two letters. The first is the letter
(A,B, or C) of the series above that it can be legally compared to
with the Limit Comparison Test. The second is C if the given series

2. We want to use the Alternating Series Test to determine if
the series:
∞∑k=4 (−1)^k+2 k^2/√k^5+3

We can conclude that:
The Alternating Series Test does not apply because the terms of
the series do not alternate.

1. To test the series ∞∑k=1 1/5√k^3 for convergence, you can use
the P-test. (You could also use the Integral Test, as is the case
with all series of this type.) According to the P-test:
∞∑k=1 1/5√k^3 converges
the P-test does not apply to ∞∑k=1 1/5√k^3
∞∑k=1 1/5√k^3 diverges
Now compute s4, the partial sum consisting of the first 4 terms
of ∞∑k=1 1 /5√k^3:
