The sum of the series ((a-b)/(a))+1/2((...

The sum of the series `((a-b)/(a))+1/2((a-b)/(a))^(2)+1/3((a-b)/(a))^(3)+….infty` is

A

`log_e((a)/(b))`

B

`log_(a-b)(a)`

C

`log_(b)(a)`

D

`log_(a-b)(b)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We have
`(a-b)/(a)+1/2(a-b)/(a)^(2)+1/3((a-b)/(a))^(3)+…infty`
`={-((a-b)/(a)-1/2(a-b)/(a))^(2)-1/3((a-b)/(a))^(3)-…infty}`
`=-log_(e )(b/a)=log_(e )(a/b)`
