Show that $\sum_\limits{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{x^n}{1+x^{2n}}$, for $x\in\mathbb{R}$.
Resolution: For $|x|>1$. Applying the root rest $\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{|x|}{(1+x^{2n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}=\frac{1}{|x|}\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{(1+\frac{1}{2^n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}=\frac{1}{|x|}$
I tried to divide both in the numerator and in the denominator by $\frac{1}{|x|}$ but it does not deliver the result.
Question:
How does the author go from $\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{|x|}{(1+x^{2n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}$to$\frac{1}{|x|}\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{(1+\frac{1}{2^n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}$ ?
It seems there is a typo with $2^n$ instead of $x^{2n}$, indeed note that
$$\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{|x|}{(1+x^{2n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}=\frac{1}{|x|}\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{x^2}{(1+x^{2n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}=\frac{1}{|x|}\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{(1+\frac{1}{x^{2n}})^{\frac{1}{n}}}=\frac{1}{|x|}$$
