Homework Statement



[n=0 to ∞] ∑x2n/n!

Homework Equations



The ratio test

The Attempt at a Solution



So, here is the ratio of of the (n+1)th term to the nth term:

| [x2(n+1)/(n+1)!] / [x2n/n!] | =

| [x2nx2/(n+1)!] * [n!/x2n] | =

| x2/n |, which will be will be less than one when n is big enough.

So this converges for all x, right?
