Attempt ratio test in this problem:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sum_{n=1}^{nifty} \frac{ 6n }{ (2n+6)5^{n+4} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6^n not 6n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

limit as n goes to infinity

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

wow... the sum from 1 to nifty... that's cool

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha i clicked infinity... not sure why it did that

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

you need a space or equals between the n and infinity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know that I'm supposed to do an+1/an and then i multiply by the reciprocal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then stuff are supposed to cancel out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does 6^(n+1) and 6^n cancel out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

..

OpenStudy (zela101):

No. They do not

OpenStudy (zela101):

Those terms are completely different from each other

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. i was thinking that just the 6ns would cancel out and there would be a term left on the top. I'm just not sure what cancels..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not sure what to do:/
