166 MATH IN FOXTROT 5/22/05 Paige says: "RELAX. IT WAS How much of a discount did she receive? We can use Calculus II to find out! 1 3k k =1 OFF." continued on next page... MATH 166 IN FOXTROT 1 3k k =1 is a geometric series. But it is not in the standard form of ar n =0 n (common mistake). To put it in this standard form, we must subtract 1 from the lower bound (k = 1). This means we have to add 1 to the `k' in the argument (we do the opposite of what we do to the bound). gives This us: 1 k +1 k =1-13 3 k =0 1 k +1 This can be rewritten as: 1 3 k =0 k +1 Using the properties of exponents: 1 1 3 3 k =0 Simplifying: k 1 1 1 3 3 k =0 k The `common ratio' in this geometric series is 1 , which is less than 1. Therefore this is 3 a ...
