Consider applying the Limit Comparison Test on S = k = 1 ( 3 k 5 ( k 1 ) ( k + 1 ) )
a) Setup and calculate the limit in this test, comparing this series to k = 2 ( 1 k )
b) Interpret the result of this limit in this test.

S = k = L 3 k 5 ( k 1 ) ( k + 1 ) = a k b R = 1 R
a) l t k a R b R = l t k 3 k 2 5 ( k 1 ) ( k + 1 ) = l t k 3 5 | 1 1 R | | 1 + 1 R | = 3 5
b) By limit compasion test, since b R is divergent
k = 2 3 k 5 ( k 1 ) ( k + 1 ) is divergent
