The correct Answer is:
To find the sum of the first \( n \) terms of the series \( (x+y) + (x^2 + 2y) + (x^3 + 3y) + \ldots \), we can break the series into two separate parts: one part involving the powers of \( x \) and the other part involving the multiples of \( y \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Series Components**: The series can be rewritten as: \[ (x + x^2 + x^3 + \ldots + x^n) + (y + 2y + 3y + \ldots + ny) \] This separates the series into two distinct series. 2. **Sum of the First Series**: The first series is a geometric series: \[ S_1 = x + x^2 + x^3 + \ldots + x^n \] This is a geometric progression (GP) where: - First term \( A = x \) - Common ratio \( R = x \) - Number of terms \( n \) The formula for the sum of the first \( n \) terms of a geometric series is: \[ S_n = A \frac{R^n - 1}{R - 1} \] Substituting the values: \[ S_1 = x \frac{x^n - 1}{x - 1} \] 3. **Sum of the Second Series**: The second series is an arithmetic series: \[ S_2 = y + 2y + 3y + \ldots + ny \] This is an arithmetic progression (AP) where: - First term \( A = y \) - Common difference \( D = y \) - Number of terms \( n \) The formula for the sum of the first \( n \) terms of an arithmetic series is: \[ S_n = \frac{n}{2} \left(2A + (n-1)D\right) \] Substituting the values: \[ S_2 = \frac{n}{2} \left(2y + (n-1)y\right) = \frac{n}{2} \left(2y + ny - y\right) = \frac{n}{2} \left(n + 1\right)y \] 4. **Combine the Two Sums**: Now, we combine the sums from both series to find the total sum \( S \): \[ S = S_1 + S_2 = x \frac{x^n - 1}{x - 1} + \frac{n(n + 1)}{2} y \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the sum of the first \( n \) terms of the series is: \[ S = x \frac{x^n - 1}{x - 1} + \frac{n(n + 1)}{2} y \]
