sum from n=0 to infinity of (n+5)/(5^n)

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{n + 5}{5 ^{n}}

converges

Solution steps

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{n + 5}{5 ^{n}}

Expand

\frac{n + 5}{5 ^{n}} : \frac{n}{5 ^{n}} + 5^{1 - n}

= n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{n}{5 ^{n}} + 5^{1 - n}

Apply the Sum Rule:

\sum a_{n} + b_{n} = \sum a_{n} + \sum b_{n}

= n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{n}{5 ^{n}} + n = 0 \sum \infty 5^{1 - n}

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{n}{5 ^{n}} =

converges

n = 0 \sum \infty 5^{1 - n} =

converges

= converges + converges

= converges
