    Find Sum of Geometric Series

    Infinite sum

    sum_(k=0)^∞ x^k = 1/(1 - x) when abs(x)<1

    Partial sum formula

    sum_(k=0)^n x^k = (x^(n + 1) - 1)/(x - 1)

    Series representations

    1/(1 - x) = sum_(n=0)^∞ x^n for abs(x)<1

    1/(1 - x) = sum_(n=-∞)^∞ ( piecewise | -1 | n = -1
0 | otherwise) (-1 + x)^n
