Please point out errors.
Exer 7.29
(c) $M_k = r^k$ because $$frac^kr^k le 1 le |z^k + 1| $$
Elaboration: I believe that $|fracz^kz^k+1| le r^k$.
Pf: For $|z| le r,$ we have $$|z|^k le r^k implies frac^kr^k le 1. tag1$$
But for $|z| in [0,infty),$ $$|z^k+1| ge ||z^k|-|1|| = ||z|^k-1| ge |0-1| = 1 implies 1 le |z^k+1| tag2$$
Thus,
$$(1) wedge (2) implies frac^kr^k le 1 le |z^k+1| implies frac^k le r^k$$
$$therefore, |fracz^kz^k+1| = frac = frac^k le r^k textQED$$
Exer 7.30
Weierstrass M-Test: $|fraczw|^k le frac^kr^k = |fraczr|^k =: M_k$

In exercise 7.29 (c)
$$leftlvert fracz^kz^k+1 rightrvert leq r^k$$
doesn't hold for all of the $z in overlineD[0,r]$. According to the maximum modulus principle, the maximum occurs on the boundary where $z=r expi theta$. The functions to be maximized then become
$$fracr^k,$$
and the maxima occur when $expi k theta=-1$. Hence $M_k$ really should be $$M_k:=fracr^k1-r^k .$$
Exericse 7.30 looks ok to me.
Thanks user1337, but what exactly is wrong with my argument please?

@BCLC Your choice of $M_k$.

lol I mean why? I believe it's an upper bound whose series is convergent

@BCLC It is not an upper bound. Consider $z=-r$ when $k$ is odd, for instance.

@BCLC $||z|^k-1|ge|0-1|$ is not necessarily true, consider $z=0.1$
