No, you're wrong there's no infinite series.nealjking said:You're wasting your time: That series does not and cannot converge. How could it? The terms get bigger and bigger.
Maybe YOU should read better.Read up on what it means for an infinite series to converge.
As Dirk pointed out, and as you can see in the OP, this is a finite sum.nealjking said:You're wasting your time: That series does not and cannot converge. How could it? The terms get bigger and bigger.

The sum of two numbers is the result of adding the two numbers together.
The formula for determining the sum of a series of numbers is: sum = (n/2)(a + l), where n is the number of terms, a is the first term, and l is the last term.
An arithmetic sum is the sum of a series of numbers that have a constant difference between them, while a geometric sum is the sum of a series of numbers that have a constant ratio between them.
The sum of an infinite series can be determined by finding the limit of the partial sums of the series as the number of terms approaches infinity.
The sum of a series can be used in a variety of real-world applications, such as calculating the total cost of items purchased with tax, finding the total distance traveled in a journey with multiple stops, or determining the total population of a species over multiple generations.
