Determine the behavior of the series ∑n=4∞2n3n−1\displaystyle \sum_{n=4}^{\infty} \dfrac{2^{n}}{3^{n}-1}. a) The series diverges because the ratio an+1/ana_{n+1}/a_n is 32>1\tfrac{3}{2}>1. b) The series converges conditionally but not absolutely. c) The series converges absolutely by comparison with the geometric series ∑(2/3)n\sum (2/3)^n. d) The series diverges because the terms do not approach 00.
