Homework Statement



If the series is 2/n^2 +4n+3

Homework Equations




After factorizing the Den who to find Sn ?

The Attempt at a Solution



I found S1 and S2 and S3 ...S6 and then how to find Sn (general form) ??

You want to express it in partial fraction form. Like A/(x+a)+B/(x+b). Did you factorize the denominator?
 
Oh, you I am done with all the steps, except the last thing which is finding the Sn - general form.
 
Then don't you notice that there's a term in a_(n+2) that cancels a term in a_(n). I wish you would show more of your work.
 
Ok.. Thanks Dick .
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
