I'm trying to evaluate the sum of the following infinite series:
∞∑n=1n16n
I know it converges to 16225, but I don't know how to reach this solution. It's not a geometric series or a telescoping sum, and I haven't found any way to relate it to a Taylor or Maclaurin series. How should I approach this problem?
Answer
Hint:
What is the derivative of ∑∞n=1xn?
