Question Number 4639 by FilupSmith last updated on 17/Feb/16

Is the section marked (∗) correct?    Π_(i=1) ^x i=x!    Π_(n=1) ^x (Π_(i=1) ^n i)=1!×2!×...×x!  =1×(1×2)×(1×2×3)×...×(1×2×...×x)  =1^x 2^(x−1) 3^(x−2) ...(x−1)^2 x^1     (∗)  Π_(m=1) ^x (Π_(n=1) ^m (Π_(i=1) ^n i))=Π_(m=1) ^x (1^m 2^(m−1) ...(m−1)^2 m)  =1×(1^2 2^1 )×(1^3 2^2 3^1 )×(1^4 2^3 3^2 4^1 )×...×(1^x 2^(x−1) ...x^1 )  =1^(Σ_(i=x−0) ^x i) ×2^(Σ_(i=x−1) ^x i) ×3^(Σ_(i=x−2) ^x i) ×...(x−1)^(Σ_(i=x−(x−1)+1) ^x i) ×x^(Σ_(i=x−x+1) ^x i)   =Π_(i=1) ^x (i^((Σ_(k=x−i+1) ^x k)) )  =Π_(i=1) ^x i^((1/2)x(2x−i+1))   =Π_(i=1) ^x i^(x^2 +(1/2)(1−i))   =Π_(i=1) ^x i^((x^2 )) (√i^(1−i) )    ∴ Π_(m=1) ^x (Π_(n=1) ^m (Π_(i=1) ^n i))=Π_(i=1) ^x i^((1/2)x(2x−i+1))

How is 1×1^2 ×1^3 ×...×1^(x−1) ×1^x =1^(Σ_(i=x−0) ^x i) ?  I′m only questioning the pattern  although the equation is right.

Because:  a^x ×a^y =a^(x+y)   ∴1×1^2 ×1^3 ×...×1^x =1^(1+2+3+...+x)   =1^(Σ_(i=1) ^x i)

i was tired when i wrote this post  so i dont remember my logic

After re reading this i have concluded  that the answer is incorrect and should be:  =Π_(i=1) ^x i^(Σ_(k=1) ^(x−i+1) k)   =Π_(i=1) ^x i^((1/2)(x−i+1)(x−i+2))
