The correct Answer is:
To find the sum of the series \[ S = 1 + \frac{1}{3^2} + \frac{1 \cdot 4}{1 \cdot 2} \cdot \frac{1}{3^4} + \frac{1 \cdot 4 \cdot 7}{1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3} \cdot \frac{1}{3^6} + \ldots \] we can relate it to the binomial expansion. ### Step 1: Identify the pattern in the series The series can be rewritten in a more recognizable form. The general term appears to be: \[ T_k = \frac{1 \cdot 4 \cdot 7 \cdots (3k - 2)}{1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdots k} \cdot \frac{1}{3^{2k}} \] This can be expressed using the Pochhammer symbol (or rising factorial): \[ T_k = \frac{(3k-2)!!}{k!} \cdot \frac{1}{3^{2k}} \] where \( (3k-2)!! \) is the double factorial. ### Step 2: Relate to the Binomial Theorem We can express the series in terms of the binomial expansion. The binomial theorem states that: \[ (1+x)^n = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \binom{n}{k} x^k \] For our case, we can relate \( n \) to the coefficients in our series. ### Step 3: Identify \( n \) and \( x \) From the series, we can see that: - \( n = -\frac{1}{3} \) - \( x = \frac{1}{3} \) ### Step 4: Use the Binomial Expansion Using the binomial series expansion for \( (1+x)^n \): \[ (1 + \frac{1}{3})^{-\frac{1}{3}} = \left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^{-\frac{1}{3}} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the result Now we calculate: \[ \left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^{-\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{3^{\frac{1}{3}}}{4^{\frac{1}{3}}} = \frac{3^{\frac{1}{3}}}{2^{\frac{2}{3}}} \] ### Final Result Thus, the sum of the series is: \[ S = \frac{3^{\frac{1}{3}}}{2^{\frac{2}{3}}} \]
