Section 10.10 : Ratio Test

For each of the following series determine if the series converges or diverges.

1. \( \displaystyle \sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {\frac{{{3^{1 - 2n}}}}{{{n^2} + 1}}} \) Solution
2. \( \displaystyle \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{\left( {2n} \right)!}}{{5n + 1}}} \) Solution
3. \( \displaystyle \sum\limits_{n = 2}^\infty {\frac{{{{\left( { - 2} \right)}^{1 + 3n}}\left( {n + 1} \right)}}{{{n^2}{5^{1 + n}}}}} \) Solution
4. \( \displaystyle \sum\limits_{n = 3}^\infty {\frac{{{{\bf{e}}^{4n}}}}{{\left( {n - 2} \right)!}}} \) Solution
5. \( \displaystyle \sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {\frac{{{{\left( { - 1} \right)}^{n + 1}}}}{{6n + 7}}} \) Solution
