How do I calculate the infinite series:
12⋅221!+22⋅322!+…?
I tried to find the nth term tn. tn=n2⋅(n+1)2n!.
So, ∞∑n=1tn=∞∑n=1n4n!+2∞∑n=1n3n!+∞∑n=1n2n!
after expanding. But I do not know what to do next.
Thanks.
Answer
You are right, now you need to expand them separately and express each of them in form of e:
∞∑n=1n2n!=∞∑n=1n+(n−1)nn!=∞∑n=11(n−1)!+1(n−2)!=2e
Similarly, we can show that,
∞∑n=1n3n!=∞∑n=1n+(n2−1)nn!=5e
and,
∞∑n=1n4n!=15e
