In this task, the sum of infinite sequences will be investigated. With regards to the
given sequence above, a general sequence will be plotted using all three parameters,
π₯, π, and π. The relationship between ππ, the sum of the general sequence and π,
the term, will be analyzed through various plotted general sequences using
technology.
The sum ππ, of the first n terms of the sequence below will be calculated for 0 β€
π β€ 10 using the following sequence.

The table below shows the calculated terms,π‘π , in relation to n. π‘π values will be
used to calculate the sum, ππ.
Table 1
Using the answers from π‘π, the calculated sum is as follows.
ππ= 0.69317 + 0.240227 + 0.055504 + 0.009618 + 0.001333 + 0.000154 + 0.000015 +

2. Thus, using the answers from π‘π, in Table 1, the relationship between ππ and n will
be plotted using technology. The relationship between ππ and n will be shown
through both a table and a graph.
Table 2 Graph 1
According to Graph 1, the sequence begins to approach a limit. Therefore, this
suggests that as π approaches +β, the value of ππ, begins to increase less.
With regards to both Table 2, and Graph 2, it can be predicted that as π approaches
+β, the limit of ππ, will be a 2.
The following expression, the limit expression, can be derived to represent the
relationship between π and π‘π
(Eq. 2)

Another sequence where π₯ = 1 and π = 3 will be considered. Like the previous
sequence, the sum ππ, will be calculated for 0 β€ π β€ 10, where n is the term
number. Also, like the previous sequence, the relationship between ππ and π will be
plotted and shown through both a graph and a table. Both the first and second
sequence will be compared, with regards to both graphs and tables.

Using the answers from π‘π, the calculated sum, ππ is as follows.
ππ=1 + 1.098612 + 0.603474 + 0.220995 + 0.060697 + 0.013336 + 0.002442 +

ππ= 2.999999
Table 4 Graph 2
According to Graph 2, the second sequence also approaches a limit as well.
Therefore again, this also suggests that as π approaches β, the value of ππ, begins to
increase less and less. With regards to both Table 2, and Graph 2, it can be predicted
that as π approaches +β, the limit of ππ, will be a 3.
The limit expression, for the second sequence considered is as follows, depicting the
relationship between π and π‘π.

Overall, this type of sequence has a limit. Nonetheless, as π increases, the infinite
sum increases as well. This is clearly shown through the infinite sums where π = 2
and where π = 3.
The infinite sums where π = 2 and where π = 3 can be represented through sigma

By expanding the general sequence, π₯ will additionally be used. The sum of the first

e.g. π9(2,π₯) is the sum of the first nine terms when π = 2 and π₯ = 5.

According to Graph 3, the sequence begins to approach a limit. Therefore, this
suggests that as π approaches +β, the value of π‘π, begins to decrease.
With regards to both Table 2, and Graph 2, it can be predicted that as π approaches
+β , the limit of π‘π, will be 0.
Another sequence where π = 3 will be considered. Like the previous sequence,
π‘π (3,π₯) will also be calculated for various positive values of π₯, where π = 3.

6. According to Graph 4, the sequence begins to approach a limit. Therefore, this
suggests that as approaches +β, the value of π‘π, begins to decrease.
With regards to both Table 6, and Graph 4, it can be predicted that as π approaches
+β , the limit of π‘π, will be also be 0, when π = 3. However according to Graph 4, π‘,
begins to increase when 0 β€ π β€ 2. ππ and begins to decrease when π β₯ 2.
While π‘π values decrease throughout the first sequenceβ¦

Further examples are considered in order to the test the validity of the general
statement, such as when π = 1. π‘π values do not increase nor decrease when π = 1

π‘3 =

π‘3 = 0
Therefore, for ππ(π,π₯) as π approaches +β, π > 1, because when π = 1, ππ values
remain constant. In other words when π = 1, the graph does not display any
relationship between ππ and π.
Conclusion
The purpose of this task, was to investigate the sum of infinite sequences, such as
ππ, where

By using various positive π values in the infinite sequence, it turned out that all the
sum of the infinite sequences would approach a limit. Nonetheless, the sum of the
infinite sequences increased as positive π values increase. In general, this shows that
in an infinite sequence, as positive π values increase, ππ approaches a greater limit.
This is shown from sample calculations of the sequences using π‘π values fro Table 2
and Table 4.
In order to verify that limits exist in the infinite sequence, the infinite sequence was
further investigated using the expanded form.

By investigating the expanded form of the infinite sequence, various positive values
of π₯ were used with constant π, such as where π = 2 or π = 3, throughout the
infinite sequence. It turned out that limits also existed in the expanded form of the
infinite sequence. For example, when π = 2 and π = 3, π‘π would approach a limit. In
this case, the limit of π‘π when π = 2 and π = 3 is 0. However, limits only exist when
π > 1. When π = 1, a limit does not exist because π‘π is constantly 0.
Therefore for the infinite sequence π‘π (π, π₯), as π approaches +β, π > 1.
Overall, since the sums of an infinite sequence approach a limit, the relationship
between π‘π and ππ is that when π‘π infinitely decreases, ππ infinitely increases.
Evaluation
Throughout the task, technology was used, which in turn, helped formulate a
general statement, for π‘π(π, π₯) .As π approaches +β, π > 1. In the beginning of the
task, various values of π and π were plugged into a graphic display calculator (GDC)
using the infinite sequence until a pattern was shown. Furthermore, the patterns

this type of infinite sequence approaches a limit. To test whether the assumption
was valid or not, various values of π were investigated as well, aside from the values
given in the task.
