Step 1
The Ratio Test states that for a series ∑aₙ, if the limit of the absolute value of the ratio of consecutive terms is less than 1, then the series converges. If the limit is greater than 1 or does not exist, then the series diverges. Show more…

Use the Ratio Test to determine whether each series converges absolutely or diverges. $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n} \frac{n+2}{3^{n}}$$

Use the Ratio Test to determine whether each series converges absolutely or diverges. $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n} \frac{n^{2}(n+2) !}{n ! 3^{2 n}}$$
Use the ratio test to determine whether the series converges or diverges. (a) Find the ratio of successive terms. Write your answer as a fully simplified fraction. For n ≥ 11, (b) Evaluate the limit in the previous part. Enter ∞ as infinity and -∞ as -infinity. If the limit does not exist, enter DNE. (c) By the ratio test, does the series converge, diverge, or is the test inconclusive? Choose.
