R0046-23866 · q-20261014-advance-20261112-r05-power-series-radius-of-convergence-0041

Original question and givens

Use a_n=(16/17)^n for every n≥0, positive q=16/17, center=3, point=5. Give (coefficient_law, center, point, distance, radius, classification, absolutely_convergent, certificate).

  • G001 — Use a_n=(16/17)^n for every n≥0, positive q=16/17, center=3, point=5. Give (coefficient_law, center, point, distance, radius, classification, absolutely_convergent, certificate).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source operation=radius-inside-outside-audit;original snapshot and mathematics retained

After

explicit ordered source output fields=[coefficient_law, center, point, distance, radius, classification, absolutely_convergent, certificate]

Conditions: none

Keep the source snapshot while listing ordered fields without JavaScript.Radius uses its original mode to select6 or11 fields without padding;distinguish nonclaims from actual negations.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: source_ordered_interface_explicit_without_javascript · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

Radius ORIGINAL positive coefficient-ratio reciprocal := div(1, 16/17)

After

Radius ORIGINAL positive coefficient-ratio reciprocal = 17/16

Conditions: none

Substitute original roles and established intermediates exactly,without floats or treating finite tests as universal limits.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · implies

Before

ORIGINAL WHOLE a_n=(16/17)^n for EVERY n>=0;center=3;positive q=16/17

After

absolute geometric term ratio=q*|x-center|;less than1 gives absolute convergence,greater than1 makes terms not tend0;exact radius1/q=17/16

Conditions: none

Use the law for every n,not a handful of coefficients.Keep interior and exterior separate and audit endpoints separately;a radius does not replace endpoint conclusions.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: radius_WHOLE_geometric_inside_outside_not_finite_coefficients · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · calculation

Before

Radius ORIGINAL point minus SAME center := sub(5, 3)

After

Radius ORIGINAL point minus SAME center = 2

Conditions: none

Substitute original roles and established intermediates exactly,without floats or treating finite tests as universal limits.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · implies

Before

ORIGINAL point=5,SAME center=3;signed difference=2;absolute distance=2;radius=17/16

After

distance<radius=No;classification=divergence;distance equality is OUTSIDE this operation,not silently classified

Conditions: none

Use absolute distance from the same center,not the signed point.Equality with R belongs to the separate endpoint branch,not inside or outside.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: radius_exact_distance_center_binding_excludes_ENDPOINT_equality · Uses: G001, S004

Reverse checks

  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute Radius ORIGINAL point minus SAME center with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute Radius ORIGINAL positive coefficient-ratio reciprocal with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(a_n=(16/17)^n_for_every_n>=0, 3, 5, 2, 17/16, divergence, No, classification_uses_exact_distance_from_center)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
