sum from n=1 to infinity of 8/(5^n)

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{8}{5 ^{n}}

2

Solution steps

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{8}{5 ^{n}}

Apply the constant multiplication rule:

\sum c \cdot a_{n} = c \cdot \sum a_{n}

= 8 \cdot n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{1}{5 ^{n}}

n = k \sum \infty (a_{n}) = n = 0 \sum \infty (a_{n}) - a_{0} - a_{1} - \dots a_{k - 1}

= 8 (n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{5 ^{n}} - \frac{1}{5 ^{0}})

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{5 ^{n}} = \frac{5}{4}

= 8 (\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{5 ^{0}})

Simplify

8 (\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{5 ^{0}}) : 2

= 2

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{4 x ^{2} - 7 x + 6}{3 x + 5})

x y^{^{'}} = y + x^{2} sin (x)

\frac{d}{d x} (e^{x} x^{2} + 2 x e^{x})

\int \frac{1}{529 + x ^{2}} d x

\frac{d}{d x} (9 ln (x))
