Consider the series y = x + x 2 + x 3 + x 4 + . . . . . . . differentiating w.r.t. x d x d y = 1 + 2 x + 3 x 2 + 4 x 3 + . . . . multiplying x then again differentiating d x d ( x d x d y ) = 1 + 2 2 x + 3 2 x 2 + 4 2 x 3 + . . . . . . . . . . multiplying x and placing x=2 we get the required series as x d x d ( x d x d y ) = 1 . 1 + 2 2 . 2 2 + 3 2 . 2 3 + 4 2 . 2 4 + . . . . . . putting y = x 1 − x ( 1 − x n ) we get s u m = 2 n + 1 ( n ) . ( n − 2 ) + 6 . ( 2 n − 1 ) put n=9 to get the desired result as 6 7 5 7 8
