The Root Test for Series

Показать описание
Calculus: The Root Test for convergence of series checks the limit of the nth roots of the nth term of the sequence. This series test works best when the general term has exponent n. We test the examples (a) sum 2^n/n^n, (b) sum [n/ln(n)]^n, and (c) the general geometric series.

I really like and appreciate your videos! They're a great help.

I'm confused how you converted a^(1/n) to become e^(ln IaI / n). Also, why was that preferred? Thank you for your time.

!! Is that pointer stick also used on students who don't properly say which test they used to identify convergence?
