Rewrite the given expression as a single Power series
\[\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}2nc_nx^{n-1}+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}6c_nx^{n+1}\]
\[k=n-1\] \[k+1=n\] \[\sum_{k=0}^\infty2(k+1)c_{k+1}x^{k+1-1}\]
\[\sum_{k=0}^\infty2(k+1)c_{k+1}x^k+\sum_{n=0}^\infty6c_nx^{n+1}\]
let k=n+1 \[k-1=n\] \[\sum_{k=0}^\infty2(k+1)c_{k+1}x^k+\sum_{k=1}^\infty6c_{k-1}x^{k}\]
@UnkleRhaukus
move the first power series up one \[2(0+1)c_1x^0+\sum_{k=1}^\infty2(k+1)c_{k+1}x^k+\sum_{k=1}^\infty6c_{k-1}x^k\]\]
\[2c_1+\sum_{k=1}^\infty[2(k+1)c_{k+1}+6c_{k-1}]x^k\]
have you done this yet @UnkleRhaukus
i havent done this stuff recently, your work looks good
WAit you haven't done " Using power series to solve differential equaions?"
i dont think i have , sounds interesting
so is that your final solution?
yep
i can split it up more but this is just writing them as one... doing the differential equations is much different
