Well basically if it goes till $$\infty$$, then the answer will be $$\infty$$.

2. ParthKohli

Although, we can take out the sum of a finite sequence.

You're only adding to infinity, but you're adding by more each time It's an exponential curve sloping upward to infinity.

How to solve it

5. anonymous

This won't converge.

6. anonymous

You don't have to actually solve it. If you want, you can draw a graph that looks like this: and recognize that it will never reach anything. It just keeps going up into infinity. |dw:1337501612526:dw|

There are infinite terms so the answer will obviously be ........ $\infty$

@FFM, I'm torn between telling you that you need to fan me because you have blocked all non-fans from messaging you and letting you figure it out for yourself in stony silence.
