Struggling with Sigma Notation and Sum to Infinity? In this Grade 12 Mathematics tutorial, we tackle a tricky Geometric Series problem where the Sigma notation starts at 0 instead of 1.
I walk you through exactly how to manipulate the exponent, identify the first term (a) and common ratio (r), and calculate the final sum to infinity step-by-step. This is a common exam-style question that tests your understanding of sequences and series!
In this lesson, you will learn:
How to handle Sigma notation when the index starts at 0 (p=0).
The formula for Sum to Infinity (a / (1-r)).
How to convert a general term into the standard geometric form .
Solving for the final convergent sum.
