What is the sum of the infinite geometric series 1 + 1/3 + 1/9 +1/27 ...?

An infinite geometric series is of the form a*(1 + b + b^2 + b^3 ...) To find the sum of all the terms in this series we consider the sum, S, where: S= 1 + b + b^2 + b^3 ... + b^n where n is some finite inte...

Using partial fractions find the integral of (15-17x)/((2+x) (1-3x)^2 )

First seperate the function into the form A/(2+x) + B/(1-3x) + C/(1-3x) 2 . Find A B and C by equating the intergral to {A(1-3x) 2 +B(1-3x)(2+x) +C(2+x)}/(2+x)(1-3x) 2 . Cancelling the denominators gives an ...
