Step 1
We can compare this series with the series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{n}{\sqrt{n^5}} = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{n}{n^{5/2}} = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^{3/2}}$. Show more…

The Ratio and Root Tests
The Ratio and Root Tests Use the Ratio Test or the Root Test to determine whether the following series converge absolutely or diverge. $$\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\left(\frac{k}{k+1}\right)^{2 k^{2}}$$
Sequences and Infinite Series
Use the Root Test to determine the convergence or divergence of the series. $$ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(2 \sqrt[n]{n}+1)^{n} $$
