decide if the following series converges or not. what test? 1)sum from n=1 to infinity 5n(0.1)^n 2) sum from n=1 to infinity 5n/10^n step by step please
#1 5n(0.1)^n or 5x(0.1)^n?? #2 1 and 2 are same
converges http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=integrate+5x%280.1%29^x+from+1+to+infinity
i need steps. Thanks
you know integral test for convergence??
unfortunately, i do not. Help me please...
ratio test??
ah, yes, i know. thanks
However, when i did it i replace n+1 for all of n and then Im completely blank..
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=lim+n-%3Einf+%285%28n%2B1%290.1^%28n%2B1%29%29%2F%285n%280.1%29^n%29 should be less than 1
alright, thanks a lot.
it's value would be 0.1 < 1 so it must converge
