उत्तर
Given:
\[ S_1 , S_2 , . . . , S_n\text { are the sum of n terms of an G . P . whose first term is 1 in each case and the common ratios are } 1, 2, 3, . . . , n . \]
\[ \therefore S_1 = 1 + 1 + 1 + . . .\text { n terms } = n . . . \left( 1 \right)\]
\[ S_2 = \frac{1\left( 2^n - 1 \right)}{2 - 1} = 2^n - 1 . . . \left( 2 \right)\]
\[ S_3 = \frac{1\left( 3^n - 1 \right)}{3 - 1} = \frac{3^n - 1}{2} . . . \left( 3 \right)\]
\[ S_4 = \frac{1\left( 4^n - 1 \right)}{4 - 1} = \frac{4^n - 1}{3} . . . \left( 4 \right)\]
\[ S_n = \frac{1\left( n^n - 1 \right)}{n - 1} = \frac{n^n - 1}{n - 1} . . . . . . . . . . . . \left( n \right)\]
\[\text { Now, LHS } = S_1 + S_2 + 2 S_3 + 3 S_4 + . . . + \left( n - 1 \right) S_n \]
\[ = n + 2^n - 1 + 3^n - 1 + 4^n - 1 + . . . + n^n - 1 \left[ \text { Using } \left( 1 \right), \left( 2 \right), \left( 3 \right), . . . , \left( n \right) \right]\]
\[ = n + \left( 2^n + 3^n + 4^n + . . . + n^n \right) - \left[ 1 + 1 + 1 + . . . + \left( n - 1 \right) \text { times } \right]\]
\[ = n + \left( 2^n + 3^n + 4^n + . . . + n^n \right) - \left( n - 1 \right)\]
\[ = n + \left( 2^n + 3^n + 4^n + . . . + n^n \right) - n + 1\]
\[ = 1 + 2^n + 3^n + 4^n + . . . + n^n \]
\[ = 1^n + 2^n + 3^n + 4^n + . . . + n^n \]
= RHS
Hence proved .
