Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Recall the formula for the radius of convergence of a power series. The radius of convergence can be determined using the ratio test, which states that the series converges when the limit of |a_(n+1)/a_n| as n approaches infinity is less than 1.
Step 2: Identify the general term of the series. The given series is sum_{n=1}^∞ (-1)^n x^n / 5^n. The general term a_n is (-1)^n x^n / 5^n.
Step 3: Apply the ratio test. Compute the ratio |a_(n+1)/a_n|. Substitute a_(n+1) = (-1)^(n+1) x^(n+1) / 5^(n+1) and a_n = (-1)^n x^n / 5^n into the formula.
Step 4: Simplify the ratio |a_(n+1)/a_n|. The terms (-1)^n cancel out, leaving |x^(n+1) / 5^(n+1) * 5^n / x^n| = |x / 5|.
Step 5: Set the inequality |x / 5| < 1 to find the radius of convergence. Solving this inequality gives |x| < 5, so the radius of convergence is r = 5.
