We are mainly going to be concerned with power series in x, such as. (x)} converges - that is, lims N n Review of Power Series, Power Series Solutios A power series i x - a is a ifiite series of the form c (x a) =c +c (x a)+(x a) +... We also call this a power series cetered at a. Ex. (x+) is cetered at
