    Solving Limits: Find Interval & Radius of Convergence

    Oh well... I blame it on my lack of sleep, ha. So I end up with polynomials only. 4-degree in the denominator and 3-degree in the numerator. (highest degrees)

    Solving Limits: Find Interval & Radius of Convergence

    Hmm I see. You would get (n+1) * (2n+1) * (2n+2) * (4n)! / (4n +4)! Can you divide both the nom. and denom. by (4n+4)! and end up with 0/1 = 0 as [ n -> ∞ ] ? Weird that my calculus book leaves the |x +c| out then...

    Solving Limits: Find Interval & Radius of Convergence

    Ah of course! (n+1)!/ n! = n+1. I still don't know these rules. But I used : n=3 4*3*2*1/3*2*1 = 4 = n+1

    Solving Limits: Find Interval & Radius of Convergence

    Ah ok I'm sorry. Yes indeed. But you would get: So you might as well just use the 'n-part', for the (x-c) is just a number (?) I ended up with: It's not possible to simplify this, right?

    Solving Limits: Find Interval & Radius of Convergence

    Homework Statement [/B] I have to find the radius of convergence and convergence interval. So for what x's the series converge. The answer is supposed to be for every real number. So the interval is: (-∞, ∞). So that must mean that the limit L = 0. So the radius of convergence [ which is...

    Does This Sequence Converge or Diverge?

    Ah the limit is now 1 . So: Limit < infinity. And ##(2/3)^n## converges. So the original function must converge as well.

    Does This Sequence Converge or Diverge?

    Homework Statement Show if this sequence (with n=1 to infinity) diverge or converge Homework Equations [/B] The Attempt at a Solution If I use the Limit Comparison Test: compare with so you get that equals lim n -> inf => inf. Can I use the Test like this? What does this...

    Does Taylor Series accurately represent limits in calculus?

    I got the answer! the first 1/2 (expansion from e^3x) is supposed to be 4 1/2 not 1/2, because you get (3x)^2 / 2! not (x)^2/2!

    Does Taylor Series accurately represent limits in calculus?

    Homework Statement [/B] lim x -> 0 2. Homework Equations Taylor series for sin cos e and ln () The Attempt at a Solution I tried expanding the sine to 3-degree, and everything else 2-degree. I ended up with this: Now the problem is that WolframAlpha says it should be -6/25. Now if...

    Calculating Limit of sin(e^x) Using L'Hopital's Rule - Step by Step Guide

    Than it must be 3^x... but (ln(x))^3 with x to infinity equals: e to the power something equals infinity therefore (e^∞)^3 which grows faster than 3^∞ , right?

    Calculating Limit of sin(e^x) Using L'Hopital's Rule - Step by Step Guide

    Ahh now it makes sense I think. So in the nominator 3^x is the fastest growing term, and in de denominator that would be ln(x)^3 (?) So if you divide by those terms, both the fastest growing terms will become 1 and the others will become 0.
