sum from n=1 to infinity of 8^{-n}

n = 1 \sum \infty 8^{- n}

\frac{1}{7}

Solution steps

n = 1 \sum \infty 8^{- n}

Simplify

8^{- n} : \frac{1}{8 ^{n}}

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

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

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

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{8 ^{n}} = \frac{8}{7}

= \frac{8}{7} - \frac{1}{8 ^{0}}

Simplify

\frac{8}{7} - \frac{1}{8 ^{0}} : \frac{1}{7}

= \frac{1}{7}

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (1 + e^{- x y} cos (y))

\int 2 cos (4 x) cos (2 x) d x

\int 4 1 - x^{2} d x

(5 x - 2 x^{4})^{3}

(x^{- 2})^{^{'}}
