I am currently studying for an Algorithms class. In my notes from class and in the my textbook, there is not a similar example I can reference. I have worked on the problem and gone to tutoring, but I can not seem to get the correct answer.
Can anyone give me any tips on how to solve this problem?
Evaluate the summation, where $a$ is a constant, $a \neq 1$.
a) $\displaystyle\sum_{i={10}}^n (a^i+n)$, where $a\neq 1$.
Thank you in advance.
