To calculate: The sum of the expression

Answer to Problem 46E
The expanded formis
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The expression
Formula used:
The sum of infinite terms of a geometric progression whose first term is a and common ratio ris
Calculation:
Consider the expression
Substitute 1, 2, 3 and so on values for b to express the expression in expanded form,
The above terms
This forms a geometric progression with first term as
Recall that the sum of infinite terms of a geometric progression whose first term is a and common ratio ris
Apply it,
Simplify it further as,
Thus, the expanded form is
