Sum of the series $(i)$ and $(ii)$
Find the sum of the series:
$(i)1+frac{2}{9}+frac{2.5}{9.18}+frac{2.5.8}{9.18.27}+cdots +infty$
$(ii)1+frac{3}{4}+frac{7}{16}+frac{13}{64}+cdots +infty$
The answer providing my book is :$(i)frac{9}{4}^{frac{1}{3}},(ii)frac{8}{3}$.
i couldn't think of how to start.Because i didn't find any helpful pattern to go further.Any hints or solution will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Am I right : 1) $sum frac{2 cdot ... cdot (3k+2)}{9 cdot ... cdot 9k}$ ?

It's better you to describe the behavior of $a_{n}$. Because it's impossible to determine the series.

I still don't know what it's supposed to be .
1) I supposed that numerator always increased by next even number : $3 = 1 + color{blue}{2}$, then $7 = 3 +color{blue}{4}$ and so on.
And denominator is $4^{k}$.
So we have $displaystyle sum_{k=0}^{infty} frac{k(k+1)+1}{4^{k}} = sum_{k=0}^{infty} frac{k(k+1)}{4^{k}} + sum_{k=0}^{infty} frac{1}{4^{k}}$. The second term is geometric progression and the first one is computed by : $displaystyle S(x) = sum_{k=0}^{infty} frac{x^{k+1}}{4^{k}} = x^{1}sum_{k = 0}^{infty} frac{x^{k}}{4^{k}} = frac{4x^{1}}{4-x}$ , so you have $displaystyle sum_{k=0}^{infty} frac{k(k+1)}{4^{k}} = S''(x)|_{x = 1} = (frac{4x}{4-x})''|_{x=1} = frac{32}{27}$
According to your solution i get $1.S_{infty} =frac{68}{27}$ :) Is the solution provided by the book is wrong ? @openspace
