Up to infinity

Calculus Level 4

k = 1 6 k ( 3 k 2 k ) ( 3 k + 1 2 k + 1 ) \large\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\dfrac{6^k}{(3^k-2^k)(3^{k+1}-2^{k+1})}

Find the value of the above series.


The answer is 2.

write 6 k 6^k = 2 k ( 3. 3 k 2. 2 k ) 2. 2 k ( 3 k 2 k ) 2^k(3.3^k-2.2^k) - 2.2^k(3^k-2^k)

Now by using telescopic cancellations .

We get answer as 2 .

n o t e note :

This is a converging series . So telescopic cancellation can be used and leaving last term as it tends to infinity
