sum from n=0 to infinity of (-7/8)^n

n = 0 \sum \infty (- \frac{7}{8})^{n}

\frac{8}{15}

Solution steps

n = 0 \sum \infty (- \frac{7}{8})^{n}

Apply Series Geometric Test:

\frac{8}{15}

= \frac{8}{15}

f (x) = 5 x, (5, 5)

x \to 2 lim ([x^{2} f (x)])

f (x) = - 3 x^{2}, at x = 1

5 x^{3} - 3 x^{5}

(x y^{2}) \frac{d y}{d x} = y^{3} - x^{3}
