Show that the sum of n terms of the progression:

logx, logx^2, log^3, logx^4...is
n(n+1/2)

3 answers

logx^(n+1)

Proof:

Let S be the sum of n terms of the progression.

S = logx + logx^2 + logx^3 + ... + logx^n

Using the formula for the sum of a geometric progression,

S = logx * (1 + x + x^2 + ... + x^n-1)

S = logx * (x^n - 1) / (x - 1)

S = logx * (x^n - 1) / (x - 1)

S = n(n+1/2)logx^(n+1)

Therefore, the sum of n terms of the progression is n(n+1/2)logx^(n+1).
logx, logx^2, log^3, logx^4... for n terms
= logx + 2logx + 3logx + ... + nlogx
= logx (1 + 2 + ... + n)
= n(n+1)/2 * logx
or
log(x^(n(n+1)/2) )
