Expert Solution
Step 1

 (Note: We’ll answer the first question since the exact one wasn’t specified. Please submit a new question specifying the one you’d like answered)

Root test is the test for the positive term series. It states that,

Leta, be a positive term series. Then the series
(a) Converges if lim(a )» <1.
(b) Diverges if lim(a,) >
n 1.
(c) Fails if lim(a)n = 1

Hence, root test fails here.

Ratio test for positive term series:

Leta, be a positive term series. Then the series
