Series Convergence and Calculus Problems

The document contains solutions to exam problems in calculus. Problem 1 finds the interval of convergence for a series by taking the limit as n approaches infinity and determining when the expression is less than 1. The interval of convergence is (-3,7). Problem 2 involves taking derivatives of a function to find coefficients of a Taylor series expansion. Problem 3 awards extra credit points for solving a trigonometric expression involving sums and differences of angles.

=> 2 < 5
=> 3 < < 7
So, the interval of convergence is
