Question
$1 + \frac{3}{2} + \frac{5}{{{2^2}}} + \frac{7}{{{2^3}}} + ......\,\infty \,$ is equal to

Answer

d
(d) It is an arithmetico-geometric series

${S_\infty } = \frac{a}{{1 - r}} + \frac{{dr}}{{{{(1 - r)}^2}}}$$ = \frac{1}{{1 - \frac{1}{2}}} + \frac{2}{{{{\left( {1 - \frac{1}{2}} \right)}^2}}}$$ = \frac{2}{{\frac{1}{2}}} + \frac{2}{{\frac{1}{4}}}$

$ = 4 + 8 = 12$.
