This question already has an answer here:



  • Proof of the equality $sumlimits_k=1^infty frack^22^k = 6$

    8 answers



Show that ... $$sum_n=1^infty fracn^2 2^n = 6$$



How would one go about in showing that the above power series equals to 6? I would assume that it has something to do with the following properties such as ...



f(x) = $sum Cn·X^n$, g(x) = $sum Dn·X^n$



  1. f(x) ± g(x) = $sum_n=b^infty Cn·X^n$ ± $sum_n=b^infty Dn·X^n$ = $sum_n=b^infty (Cn ± Dn)·X^n$


  2. f $(K · X^m)$ = $sum_n=b^infty Cn(K·X^m)^n$


  3. $sum_n=b^infty Cn X^n+m $ = $X^m sum_n=b^infty Cn·X^n$


  4. if f(x) = $sum_n=0^infty Cn·X^n$ then f'(x) = $sum_n=1^infty Cn·nX^n-1$


  5. if f(x) = $sum_n=0^infty Cn·X^n$ then $int f(x)$ = $sum_n=0^infty$ $frac Cn·X^n+1 n+1$


  6. $sum_n=b^infty Cn·X^n$ is continuous on Interval of Convergence.


This is the completed work so far ...



$$sum_n=1^infty fracn^2 2^n = sum_n=1^infty (1/2)^n ·n^2$$



let f(x) = $$ sum_n=1^infty X^nn^2$$



then $$ int f(x) = sum_n=1^infty frac X^n+1 n+1 · n^2$$



I assume the next step should be to cancel $n^2$ and n+1, but I'm not quite getting the connection. How would you proceed with this?

Hinte: Try starting with $sum_n=0^infty x^n = 1 over 1-x$ for $|x|<1$ and differentiate both sides. Multiply the result by $x$ and repeat. Adjust as necessary. Rinse & dry.

    Consider$$S_k=sum_n=1^k n^2 x^n=sum_n=1^k [n(n-1)+n] x^n=sum_n=1^k n(n-1) x^n+sum_n=1^k n x^n$$ that is to say
    $$S_k=x^2sum_n=1^k n(n-1) x^n-2+xsum_n=1^k n x^n-1=x^2left(sum_n=1^k x^n right)''+xleft(sum_n=1^k x^n right)'$$
