simplify ((1-(1/3)(1-(-1/2)^{n-1})))/2

simplify

\frac{( 1 - ( \frac{1}{3} ) ( 1 - ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1} ) )}{2}

\frac{2 + ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1}}{6}

Solution steps

\frac{1 - ( \frac{1}{3} ) ( 1 - ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1} )}{2}

Apply rule:

(a) = a

(\frac{1}{3}) = \frac{1}{3}

= \frac{1 - \frac{1}{3} ( 1 - ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1} )}{2}

Simplify

1 - \frac{1}{3} (1 - (- \frac{1}{2})^{n - 1}) : \frac{2 + ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1}}{3}

= \frac{\frac{2 + ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1}}{3}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{c} = \frac{a}{b \cdot c}

= \frac{2 + ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1}}{3 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 2 = 6

= \frac{2 + ( - \frac{1}{2} ) ^{n - 1}}{6}

5^{- 8} \cdot (5^{3})^{x}

c^{4} d \frac{f ^{22}}{6}

\frac{( x ^{2} \cdot y ^{2} )}{( x ^{2} + y ^{2} - x )}

\frac{6600 x [ ( 1.04 ) ^{12} - 1 ]}{( 0.04 )}

s^{27} d^{62} \frac{z}{a}
