Evaluate the following: _ n=1 ^ 11 (2+3^n) - Vidyadip

Question

Evaluate the following:

$\sum_\limits{\text{n}=1}^{11}(2+3^\text{n})$

✓

Answer

$\sum_\limits{\text{n}=1}^{11}(2+3^\text{n})$
$=(2+3^1)+(2+3^2)+(2+3^3)+\ \dots\ +(2+3^{11})$
$=2\times11+3^1+3^2+3^3+\dots+3^{11}$
$=22+\frac{3(3^{11}-1)}{(3-1)}$
$=22+\frac{3(3^{11}-1)}{2}$
$=\frac{44+3(177147-1)}{2}$
$=\frac{44+3(177146)}{2}$
$=265741$
So,
$\sum_\limits{\text{n}=1}^{11}(2+3^\text{n})=265741$
