Study the convergence of the series $sum_{n=1}^infty left( sqrt[17]{5+ frac1n} - sqrt[17]{5}right)^{a}q^n$...












0














I have a problem with this task, because I think the most important is idea to do convergence of the series
$$
sum_{n=1}^inftyleft( sqrt[17]{5+ frac{1}{n} } - sqrt[17]{5}right)^{!a},
$$
but it is difficult for me because it is power $a$ and for $a=1$.



I can use claim about three series, but in this case I completely don't knew what can I do.

          Hint. First show that
          $$
          lim_{ntoinfty,}nleft(sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n}}-sqrt[17]{5}right)=frac{sqrt[17]{5}}{85},
          $$
          and hence
          $$
          left(sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n}}-sqrt[17]{5}right)^aapprox left(frac{sqrt[17]{5}}{85}right)^an^{-a}
          $$
          Thus, we have convergence of the series if $|q|<1$, or $q=1$ and $a>1$, or $q=-1$ and $a>0$.

          • Ok, but if I have to show that $lim_{ntoinfty,}nleft(sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n}}-sqrt[17]{5}right)=frac{sqrt[17]{5}}{85}$ I should multiply by coupling $left(sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n}}-sqrt[17]{5}right)$ but I think it is impossible for power $1/17$ - I can do it for example for $1/16$ but not for $1/17$

            If I understand well, you need the following additional information: Pulling out $sqrt[17]{5}$ $left(sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n}}-sqrt[17]{5}right)=left(sqrt[17]{5}sqrt[17]{1+frac{1}{5n}}-sqrt[17]{5}right)=sqrt[17]{5}left(sqrt[17]{1+frac{1}{5n}}-1right)$ Using Bernoulli's inequality you receive an upper bound: $sqrt[17]{5}left(sqrt[17]{1+frac{1}{5n}}-1right)lesqrt[17]{5}left({1+frac{1}{85n}}-1right)=frac{sqrt[17]{5}}{85n}$

          • Ok, thanks, but I need also lower limit, but I think the only possibility is $ge left(sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n}}-sqrt[17]{5+frac{1}{n^{b}}}right)$ for $b>1$, but in this case I cannot show that the limit of this expression is $frac{sqrt[17]{5}}{85n}$ because here I also need 3 ranks so I should find an expression where the limit is obvious

          36 3 The question Has there ever been a military combat going on around an active (running or in outage but not decommissioned) commercial nuclear power plant? Or dangerously near it?
