The ratio test here will work nicely:
Recall that we apply the ratio test to the the entire summand:
a n = ( ( ln n ) 3 n | x | n )
and doing so here will give you the result 1 | x | . So the series will converge x : | x | < 1, and will diverge x : | x | > 1
What happens at x = + 1 , x = 1 remains to be determined, so be sure to test for convergence/divergence at x=1 and also at x=-1
