Homework Statement



Find the radius of convergence of the following power series: ∑_(n=0)^∞[(2n+1)/2n] x^n)

Homework Equations



Ratio Test: lim_n->inf (a_n+1 / a_n)

The Attempt at a Solution



I got a big ugly fraction that involved both n and x

You should be able to get a second degree polynomial on the numerator and denominator... then apply L'Hopital rule.. why not show us the fraction you've gotten
