### Divergence Test for Infinite Series

#### Problem Statement:
Use the Divergence Test to determine whether the following series diverges or state that the test is inconclusive.

#### Given Series:
\[ \sum_{k=2}^{\infty} \frac{3k}{\ln 9k} \]

#### Instructions:
Select the correct answer below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice.

1. **Option A:**
   - According to the Divergence Test, the series converges because \(\lim_{k \to \infty} a_k = \).
   - (Simplify your answer.)

2. **Option B:**
   - According to the Divergence Test, the series diverges because \(\lim_{k \to \infty} a_k = \).
   - (Simplify your answer.)

3. **Option C:**
   - The Divergence Test is inconclusive because \(\lim_{k \to \infty} a_k = \).
   - (Simplify your answer.)

4. **Option D:**
   - The Divergence Test is inconclusive because \(\lim_{k \to \infty} a_k\) does not exist.
