To find the sum of infinite series(if it exists)
Answer to Problem 10CYU
The sum doesn’t exist.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Concept Used:
1. Sum of an infinite geometric series
2. Sum of an infinite geometric series
Calculation:
In order to find the sum of infinite series
First check whether this sum exists or not, for that check if the common ratio of the series satisfies
Comparing the given series with
Since, the common ratio of this infinite series is greater than 1.
Thus, the given sum of is divergent.
Thus, the sum doesn’t exist.
