f(3x - 1) = 6x - 1

Rewrite 6x - 1 as a function of 3x - 1:

6x - 1 = 6x - 2 + 1 = 2(3x - 1) + 1

That is,

f(3x - 1) = 2(3x - 1) + 1

which means

f(x) = 2x + 1

and so

f(0) = 2*0 + 1 = 1

A = 1011 + 337 + 337/2 +1011/10 + 337/5 + ... + 1/2021

The sum of the given series can be found by simplification of the number

of terms in the series.

A is approximately <u>2020.022</u>

Reasons:

The given sequence is presented as follows;

A = 1011 + 337 + 337/2 + 1011/10 + 337/5 + ... + 1/2021

Therefore;

$\displaystyle A = \mathbf{1011 + \frac{1011}{3} + \frac{1011}{6} + \frac{1011}{10} + \frac{1011}{15} + ...+\frac{1}{2021}}$

The n + 1 th term of the sequence, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, ..., 2021 is given as follows;

$\displaystyle a_{n+1} = \mathbf{\frac{n^2 + 3 \cdot n + 2}{2}}$

Therefore, for the last term we have;

$\displaystyle 2043231= \frac{n^2 + 3 \cdot n + 2}{2}$

2 × 2043231 = n² + 3·n + 2

Which gives;

n² + 3·n + 2 - 2 × 2043231 = n² + 3·n - 4086460 = 0

Which gives, the number of terms, n = 2020

$\displaystyle \frac{A}{2} = \mathbf{ 1011 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{12}+...+\frac{1}{4086460} \right)}$

$\displaystyle \frac{A}{2} = 1011 \cdot \left(1 - \frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3}- \frac{1}{4} +...+\frac{1}{2021}-\frac{1}{2022} \right)$
