đặt A = \(-1-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}-...-\frac{1}{1024}\)
ta có:
A = \(-1-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}-...-\frac{1}{1024}\)
A = \(-\left(1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+...+\frac{1}{1024}\right)\)
Đặt B = \(1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+...+\frac{1}{1024}\)
ta có:
B = \(1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+...+\frac{1}{1024}\)
=> 2B = \(2+1+\frac{1}{2}+...+\frac{1}{512}\)
=> 2B - B = \(\left(2+1+\frac{1}{2}+...+\frac{1}{512}\right)-\left(1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+...+\frac{1}{1024}\right)\)
=> B = \(2-\frac{1}{1024}\)
=> B = \(\frac{2048}{1024}-\frac{1}{1024}=\frac{2047}{1024}\)
Thay B vào A ta có:
A = \(\frac{-2047}{1024}\)
vậy A = \(\frac{-2047}{1024}\)
