Problem

A power series centered at x=3x=3 converges at x=4x=4 but diverges at x=2x=2. After integrating the series term by term, which of the following statements best describes the interval of convergence of the antiderivative? (a) The radius remains 11, and convergence behaviour at both endpoints is unchanged. (b) The radius remains 11, and convergence at each endpoint must be tested separately because it may change at x=2x=2 and x=4x=4. (c) The radius remains 11, and after integration the series converges at both x=2x=2 and x=4x=4. (d) The radius increases to 22, and the series converges at the same endpoints as before.
