sum from n=1 to infinity of (-3)/(2^n)

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{- 3}{2 ^{n}}

- 3

Solution steps

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{- 3}{2 ^{n}}

Apply the constant multiplication rule:

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

= - 3 \cdot n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{1}{2 ^{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}{2 ^{n}} - \frac{1}{2 ^{0}})

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{2 ^{n}} = 2

= - 3 (2 - \frac{1}{2 ^{0}})

Simplify

= - 3

\frac{d}{d x} (ln (\frac{x - 1}{x + 1}))

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (\frac{m}{x ^{a} y ^{b} z ^{c}})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (\frac{3}{8} x y)
