Math Problem Statement
Differentiate the given series expansion of f term-by-term to obtain the corresponding series expansion for the derivative of f . if f(x)=(1)/((1-x^(5)))=\sum_(n=0)^(\infty ) x^(5n) f'(x) = \sum_(n=1)^(\infty )
Solution
To find the series expansion for the derivative of the given function , we will differentiate the given series expansion of term-by-term. The given series expansion is:
We need to differentiate this series term-by-term to find the series expansion for :
Using the linearity of differentiation and the fact that we can interchange the summation and differentiation (since the series is uniformly convergent), we get:
To differentiate each term, we use the power rule of differentiation:
Therefore, we have:
Since the term for is zero (because ), we can start the summation from :
Thus, the series expansion for the derivative of is:

Tip: When differentiating a power series term-by-term, ensure that the series converges uniformly on the interval where you differentiate. This guarantees the validity of interchanging the summation and differentiation operations.
