sum from n=1 to infinity of 3/(5^n)

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{3}{5 ^{n}}

\frac{3}{4}

Solution steps

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{3}{5 ^{n}}

Apply the constant multiplication rule:

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

= 3 \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}

= 3 (n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{5 ^{n}} - \frac{1}{5 ^{0}})

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

= 3 (\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{5 ^{0}})

Simplify

3 (\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{5 ^{0}}) : \frac{3}{4}

= \frac{3}{4}

\int \frac{3 x ^{5}}{1 - 12 x ^{6}} d x

\int 9 x e^{- x^{2}} d x

\int ln (x + 5) d x

\int_{0}^{1} \frac{4}{( x + 1 ) ( x ^{2} + 1 )} d x

\int (\frac{1}{( 1 - x ) ^{2}}) d x
