The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given function \( f: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R} \) that satisfies the equation: \[ f(1) + 2f(2) + 3f(3) + \ldots + xf(x) = x(x+1)f(x) \quad \text{for } x \geq 2 \] with the condition \( f(1) = 1 \). ### Step 1: Establish the equation for \( x = n \) Let’s denote the left-hand side of the equation as \( S_n = f(1) + 2f(2) + 3f(3) + \ldots + nf(n) \). Thus, we have: \[ S_n = n(n+1)f(n) \] ### Step 2: Establish the equation for \( x = n + 1 \) Now, let’s consider the case when \( x = n + 1 \): \[ S_{n+1} = f(1) + 2f(2) + 3f(3) + \ldots + nf(n) + (n+1)f(n+1) = (n+1)(n+2)f(n+1) \] ### Step 3: Relate \( S_{n+1} \) and \( S_n \) We can express \( S_{n+1} \) in terms of \( S_n \): \[ S_{n+1} = S_n + (n+1)f(n+1) \] ### Step 4: Set up the equation From the two expressions for \( S_n \) and \( S_{n+1} \), we have: \[ S_n + (n+1)f(n+1) = (n+1)(n+2)f(n+1) \] Substituting \( S_n = n(n+1)f(n) \): \[ n(n+1)f(n) + (n+1)f(n+1) = (n+1)(n+2)f(n+1) \] ### Step 5: Simplify the equation We can factor out \( (n+1) \): \[ (n+1)f(n) + f(n+1) = (n+2)f(n+1) \] Rearranging gives us: \[ (n+1)f(n) = (n+2)f(n+1) - f(n+1) \] \[ (n+1)f(n) = n f(n+1) \] ### Step 6: Establish a recursive relationship This leads us to the relationship: \[ \frac{f(n)}{f(n+1)} = \frac{n}{n+1} \] ### Step 7: Solve for \( f(n) \) From this relationship, we can express \( f(n) \) in terms of \( f(1) \): \[ f(n) = \frac{1}{n} f(1) = \frac{1}{n} \] ### Step 8: Verify the function Since \( f(1) = 1 \), we have: \[ f(n) = \frac{1}{n} \] ### Step 9: Calculate \( \frac{1}{f(2022)} + \frac{1}{f(2028)} \) Now we need to find: \[ \frac{1}{f(2022)} + \frac{1}{f(2028)} = 2022 + 2028 = 4050 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{4050} \]
