shouldnt it be t^n+1

 

[MJRey]

No, the original is correct

 

[Lith_30]

wait na, the original is wrong

 

[Anaya R]

Nope the original is correct. If we subbed in n=1 into the two equations youll see that the original gives us 1 whereas the the t^(n+1) equation would give us (t^1)+1

if you subbed n = 1 into the LHS of the original, you would get 1+t, so yeah the original is wrong.

i think to cater to both sides of the argument we should leave it as t^(n+0.5)

 

[yanujw]

Definitely wrong. Multiplying both sides by (t-1) shows that the LHS would be a (n+1) degree polynomial, while the RHS would be a n degree polynomial.

original gives us 1

If you sub in 1 the LHS would be (t+1) -> n is the degree of the highest power of t in the LHS.
