MCQ
The value of $\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{r}=1}\Big\{\big(2\text{r}-1\big)\text{a}+\frac{1}{\text{b}^\text{r}}\Big\}$ is equal to:
  • A
    $\text{an}^2+\frac{\text{b}^{\text{n}-1}-1}{\text{b}^{\text{n}-1}(\text{b}-1)}$
  • $\text{an}^2+\frac{\text{b}^\text{n}-1}{\text{b}^\text{n}(\text{b}-1)}$
  • C
    $\text{an}^3+\frac{\text{b}^{\text{n}-1}-1}{\text{b}^{\text{n}}(\text{b}-1)}$
  • D
    none of these.

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\text{an}^2+\frac{\text{b}^\text{n}-1}{\text{b}^\text{n}(\text{b}-1)}$
We have,
$\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{r}=1}\Big\{(2\text{r}-1)\text{a}+\frac{1}{\text{b}^\text{r}}\Big\}$
$=\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{r}=1}\Big\{2\text{ra}-\text{a}+\frac{1}{\text{b}^\text{r}}\Big\}$
$=\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{r}=1}2\text{ar}-\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{r}=1}\text{a}+\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{r}=1}\frac{1}{\text{b}^{\text{r}}}$
$=\text{an}(\text{n}+1)-\text{an}+\frac{(1-\text{b}^\text{n})}{(1-\text{b})\text{b}^\text{n}}$
$=\text{an}^2+\frac{\text{b}^\text{n}-1}{\text{b}^\text{n}(\text{b}-1)}$
