1 + 1 (n+1/n) + 3 (n+1/n)^2 + 5 (+1/n)^3........... find the sum ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are there any other directions.?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what directions???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you have to break the problem down into smaller bits... Look at the first term. It has a leading 1 then the next term has a leading 3...

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

n-->infinity ?? hmm?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This will seem like you should have a formula , the first part anyway as, (1+(2)^n). Does that make sence?

hartnn (hartnn):

Arithmaetico geometric series with common ratio (n+1)/n and common difference 2....and does n-> infinity ?? infinite terms ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

n ---> infinity./..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The second component is multiplied by the term like the above... It is also growing without bounds, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

guys please check whether my logic is correct or not??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we write n+1/n = 1 + 1/n when n----> infinity then 1/n = 0 so we can eliminate it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@hartnn @shubhamsrg check this

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

here's one formulla which you should remember in an AGP .. (n->infinity)Sum = ab/(1–r) + dbr/(1–r)^2. where, a= first term of AP b= first term of GP d=common difference of AP r=common ratio of GP this one has a simple derivation..nothing much to be worried about.. just plug in values..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why cant we do like this???

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

we can eliminate it in the first few terms ,ofcorse since the constant term is <<<<n but it has infinite terms,,as you proceed adding, a time will come when the constant will not be negligible in front of n,, and you cant decide what no. that'll be,,so you cant just do like that.. hope i was clear,.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm. ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 (n+(1/n)) or 1 (n+1)/n ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1(n+1/n)
