Find the interval of convergence, including end-point tests:∑n=1∞(n!)2xn(2n)!

Short Answer

Expert verified

The interval of convergence is -4<x<4.

Step by step solution

01

Concept used to find the interval of convergence

The ratio test for convergence is expressed as follows:

limn→∞|an+1||an|<1

The ratio test for divergence is expressed as follows:

limn→∞|an+1||an|>1

02

Calculation to find the interval of the convergence of the series ∑n=1∞(n!)2xn(2n)!

term of the series is,an=(n!)2xn(2n)!

The magnitude of nthterms is:

an=(n!)2xn(2n)! …… (1)

The magnitude of (n+1)thterms is calculated as follows:

an+1=((n+1)!)2xn+1(2n+2)! …… (2)

Take the ratio of equation (2) y equation (1) as follows:

an+1an=((n+1)!)2xn+1(2n+2)!(n!)xn(2n)!=((n+1)!)2xn+1(2n)!(2n+2)!(n!)2xn=(n+1)2x(2n+2)(2n+1)=1+1n2x2+2n2+1n

Apply the limit in the above ratio as follows:

limn→∞an+1an=limn→∞1+1n2x2+2n2+1nlimn→∞an+1an=x4

The series converges for limn→∞an+1an<1whenx4<1 and the series is divergent when x4>1.

Therefore, the interval is -1<x4<1.

It is simplified as,

-1<x4<1-4<x<4

For, x=4the series becomes:

∑n=1∞(n!)24n+1(2n)!

This series is divergent using the limit test.

For, x=-4the series becomes:

∑n=1∞(n!)2(-4)n+1(2n)!

This is divergent series using the limit test.

Thus, the interval of converges is -4<x<4.
