Sum of infinite geometric series = 1st term / (1 - ratio),
with the condition that the | ratio | < 1.
We worked a couple examples - mostly this is just some arithmetic and algebra.
Notes from today are below.

Feb 8 - Taylor Series (Geometric Series)
Today was our second day of finding Taylor series for functions. We
focused on special rational functions that we could treat as
representing the sum of a geometric series. The sum formula we're
building on from last year in Pre-Calculus is:
Sum of infinite geometric series = 1st term / (1 - ratio),
with the condition that the | ratio | < 1.
We worked a couple examples - mostly this is just some arithmetic and algebra.
