This section introduces the Ratio and Root Tests, which determine convergence by analyzing the terms of a series to see if they approach 0 "fast enough.''

    In this section, we prove the last two series convergence tests: the ratio test and the root test. These tests are nice because they do not require us to find a comparable series. The ratio test will ...In this section, we prove the last two series convergence tests: the ratio test and the root test. These tests are nice because they do not require us to find a comparable series. The ratio test will be especially useful in the discussion of power series in the next chapter. Throughout this chapter, we have seen that no single convergence test works for all series. Therefore, at the end of this section we discuss a strategy for choosing which convergence test to use for a given series.

If we assume that a solution of a differential equation is written as a power series, then perhaps we can use a method reminiscent of undetermined coefficients. That is, we will try to solve for the coefficients of the expansion . Before we can carry out this process, let us review some results and concepts about power series.
