I am trying to find the sum of this -



$$sum_r=1^100 ( 1 + 2r + 0.3^r ) $$



I know roughly how I am supposed to do. First I distribute the summation across the 3 values.



Then I got stuck $2r$ and $0.3^r$



Both are similar if I understand, so I will only ask for one of them ,



$sum_r=1^100 (2r)$



how am I suppose to use the property to solve this just like $sum_r=1^100 = 100(1) = 100 $



Am I right to say -



$sum_r=1^100 (2r) = 2(1)(100) $ ? But I doubt myself as the r value changes . So I think this is wrong.

  • Try separating the sum into sums of $1$, $2r$, and $0.3^r$ then solving each independently.

  • $sum_r=1^100 (2r) = (1+2+cdots+99+100) + (100+99+cdots+2+1) $ $= (1+100)+(2+99)+cdots+(99+2)+(100+1) = 100 times 101$

You should try breaking up the summation into parts so that you can evaluate them easily



$displaystyle sum_r=1^100 ( 1 + 2r + 0.3^r )$



$=displaystyle sum_r=1^1001+sum_r=1^1002r+sum_r=1^100(0.3)^r$



$displaystyle = 100+2sum_r=1^100r+sum_r=1^100(0.3)^r$



$displaystyle= 100+2cdotfrac100(101)2+ frac1-(0.3)^1001-0.3$



$=displaystyle 100+10100+1.428 $



$=10201.4285$



EDIT:



You should look up geometric series to understand the summation of $(0,3)^r $

    Hint:
    $$sum_r=1^1001+2r+0.3^r=left(sum_r=1^1001right)+left(sum_r=1^1002rright)+left(sum_r=1^1000.3^rright)$$



    Solution:




    $$sum_r=1^1001+2r+0.3^r=left(sum_r=1^1001right)+left(sum_r=1^1002rright)+left(sum_r=1^1000.3^rright)$$
    $$left(sum_r=1^1001right)=100$$
    $$left(sum_r=1^1002rright)=2sum_r=1^100r=100(101)=10100$$
    Since $1+2+3+...+r=r(r+1)/2$
    $$left(sum_r=1^1000.3^rright)=frac1-0.3^1001-0.3$$
    The sum is about $10201.428$
