Geometric Series - Finding a Partial Sum Equation
Is it possible to find the partial sum equation for (2^m - 1)/3^m, from m=0 to m=n-1? I know that I'm supposed to rearrange the expression into the format ar^m, so the exponent m must only be on the value r, and not on the constant a. So far the farthest I've gotten is to rearrange it into...- Sean O

Undergrad How can I make myself like math more?
Hey guys, thanks for your replies so far. @ Dadface: That's what I already do. It works well enough, but having to take so many breaks makes it take longer to finish. I expect to want to take at least a couple of breaks, but the fewer I have to take the better. That's why I'm asking about...- Sean O

Undergrad How can I make myself like math more?
Hey everyone, I'm in my first year of electrical engineering, so as you can guess I'm not really taking any serious engineering courses yet - just general math and science. I'm pretty good at math... but I don't enjoy it that much. I've gotten by so far on my talent alone, but now that we're...- Sean O
