Use the Ratio Test to determine the convergence or divergence of the series. If the Ratio Test is inconclusive, determine the convergence or divergence of the series using other methods. (If you need to use or –, enter INFINITY or –INFINITY, respectively.)

Answer:

Given series is divergent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-  

By using Ratio test

                [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1} }{a_{n} } | = l[/tex]

a)     [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1} }{a_{n} } | = l[/tex]  

'l' is finite then the given ∑aₙ is convergent

b)   [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1} }{a_{n} } | = l[/tex]  

Here 'l' is infinite then the  ∑aₙ  is divergent

Step(ii):-

Given      aₙ = [tex]\frac{n!}{n}[/tex]

            [tex]a_{n+1} = \frac{(n+1)!}{n+1}[/tex]

     [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1} }{a_{n} } | = \lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{\frac{(n+1)!}{n+1} }{\frac{n!}{n} } |[/tex]

               we know that  n ! = n (n-1) (n-2) ......3.2.1

              and also          (n+1) ! = (n+1)n!

  [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1} }{a_{n} } | = \lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{\frac{n+1)n!}{n+1} }{\frac{n!}{n} } |[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1} }{a_{n} } | = \lim_{n \to \infty} n[/tex]

                       = ∞
