Question

Suppose the power series (image) has a radius of convergence 4.

A) Which of the following values of x do we know for certain that the series will converge? (choose all that apply)

 
 
The expression shown is an infinite series:

\[
\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n (x-4)^n
\]

This represents a power series, where \( a_n \) are the coefficients of the series, and \( (x-4)^n \) indicates each term of the series is based on the variable \( x \) shifted by 4, raised to the power of \( n \). The series starts from \( n = 0 \) and extends to infinity. This form is useful in mathematical analysis and can be used to represent functions as an infinite sum of terms.
