The problem is to find a power series that satisfies convergence on the interval [−1,3),(−1,3),(−1,3], and [−1,3]. I have worked out a general form equation that satisfies the first two, but I am having issues trying to manipulate the formula for parts 3 and 4.
General Eq. ∞∑n=1(x−1)n2n
for (−1,3)
and ∞∑n=1(x−1)nn2n
for −1,3)
No matter what I try It seems like the numerator will always be 2n
or the bounds of convergence change. If it isn't possible would my explanation be the reason why?
Answer
For the (−1,3], the idea used for [−1,3) will work. Just multiply by (−1)n.
For [−1,3], try ∑(x−1)nn22n.
