Question:
In each part of this question write out, as a sum of terms, the two series defined by f (r); for example, in part c, write out
10 10
the series r 2 and r. Hence, state whether the given statements relating their sums are true or not.

Solution:
a The two series are exactly the same, 4 + 7 + 10 + + (3n + 1), and so their sums are the same.
b The two series are exactly the same, 2 + 4 + 6 + + 2n, and so their sums are the same.
c The statement is not true.
