Question

The AM of the series 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, . . ., 2ⁿ is

Easy

A

$\frac{2^{n} - 1}{n}$
B

$\frac{2^{n + 1} - 1}{n + 1}$
C

$\frac{2^{n} + 1}{n}$
D

$\frac{2^{n} - 1}{n + 1}$

Solution

The required AM is
$\bar{X} = \frac{1 + 2 + 2^{2} + 2^{3} + \dots + 2^{n}}{n + 1} = \frac{(2^{n + 1} - 1)}{(n + 1) (2 - 1)} = \frac{2^{n + 1} - 1}{n + 1}$
