Calculus II, Lesson 17: The Ratio Test

Math skill: Compute the Limiting Ratio L for a_n = c^n · n

How the beat teaches it: Every slot gives a_n = cⁿ·n — the ratio test looks at |a_(n+1)/a_n| as n→∞, which simplifies to c·(n+1)/n → c. Build that many notes anywhere in the kit.

This is lesson 17 of 24 in RockBlocks Math, Calculus II, a free course where every lesson turns a math idea into something you can count, hear, and play. The previous lesson, Telescoping Series,” covered evaluate a Series That Collapses via Cancellation. Next is Lesson 18, Taylor Polynomial Approximation.”

Every slot above (A, B, C, D) is its own question, and it’s a real, blank RockBlocks beat the whole time — the same drag-and-drop tiles, kit, tempo, sheet music, and drummer view as anywhere else on the site. Tap ❓ Questionin the corner to read the current slot’s problem, build your answer right in the grid, then tap ✓ Check Answerto grade it. Once you’re done, keep going: expand the beat, drop it into a Stack, or save a copy to your own page — nothing here overwrites the lesson itself, so every visitor still starts from the same blank slots.
