Best answer

Correct option is (C) x

\(S_\infty=\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{4}+\frac{x}{8}+.......\)

\(=x\,(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{8}+.......)\)

\(=x\,(\frac{1}{2}+(\frac{1}{2})^2+(\frac{1}{2})^3+.......)\)

\(=x\,\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{1-\frac{1}{2}}\)           \((\because\) Sum of infinite terms in G.P. \(=\frac a{1-r}\) if r < 1)

\(=x\,\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}\) = x

\(\therefore\) \(\frac{x}{2} +\frac{x}{4} + \frac{x}{8} + ......=x\)
