Question
Question: For 0 \< x \< 1, the value of log(1 + x) + log(1 + x<sup>2</sup>) + .... to ∞ is...
For 0 < x < 1, the value of log(1 + x) + log(1 + x2) + .... to ∞ is
A
log(1− x)
B
− log(1 − x)
C
logx
D
−logx
Answer
− log(1 − x)
Explanation
Solution
The given expression = log [(1 + x) (1 + x2) ..... to ∞]
= log[ 1+ x + x2 + x3 + .... to ∞]
= log(1−x1)
= − log(1 − x).
