Step-by-Step Analysis
The problem asks us to analyze a power series ∑_{n=0}^∞ c_n x^n with interval of convergence (−3, 3) and whose sum on that interval is f(x) = 1/x^2. Then we consider ∑_{n=0}^∞ 5x · c_n x^n, which can be rewritten as ∑_{n=0}^∞ 5 c_n x^{n+1}. Option a) (-3, 3) as the interval of convergence for ∑ 5x · c_n x^n. - The original power series ∑ c_n x^n has radius of convergence 3, so its domain of conv......Login to view full explanation
