The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the infinite series given by: \[ S = 1 + \frac{nx}{1-x} + \frac{n(n+1)}{2!} \left(\frac{x}{1-x}\right)^2 + \ldots \] Given that \(|x| < \frac{1}{2}\), we can recognize that this series is a power series expansion. ### Step 1: Identify the series The series can be recognized as the expansion of the function: \[ S = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{n(n-1)}{2!} \left(\frac{x}{1-x}\right)^n \] This resembles the binomial series expansion. ### Step 2: Use the binomial series formula The binomial series for \((1 - u)^{-k}\) is given by: \[ (1 - u)^{-k} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{k(k+1)(k+2)\ldots(k+n-1)}{n!} u^n \] In our case, we can rewrite the series as: \[ S = \frac{1}{(1 - \frac{x}{1-x})^2} = \frac{1}{(1 - \frac{x}{1-x})^2} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the expression Now, we simplify \(\frac{x}{1-x}\): \[ S = \frac{1}{(1 - \frac{x}{1-x})^2} = \frac{1}{(1 - \frac{x}{1-x})^2} \] We can simplify this further: \[ 1 - \frac{x}{1-x} = \frac{1-x-x}{1-x} = \frac{1-2x}{1-x} \] Thus, \[ S = \frac{(1-x)^2}{(1-2x)^2} \] ### Step 4: Final result The final result for the series is: \[ S = \frac{1-x}{(1-2x)^2} \] ### Summary of Steps 1. Identify the series as a power series expansion. 2. Use the binomial series formula to express the series. 3. Simplify the expression to find the closed form. 4. State the final result.

To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the infinite series given by: \[ S = 1 + \frac{nx}{1-x} + \frac{n(n+1)}{2!} \left(\frac{x}{1-x}\right)^2 + \ldots \] Given that \(|x| < \frac{1}{2}\), we can recognize that this series is a power series expansion. ...
