<s>[INST] Finding the sum of x of two power series. Could someone give me a hint on finding the sum of all $x$ for the following power series:
$$
\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n+1} \frac{x^{2n+1}}{2n+1} 
$$
I am pretty sure we need to compare this with $$arctan (x)  = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(-1)^n\frac{x^{2n+1}}{2n+1} $$
I'm just not sure how. Would integrating help us?
The other series: $$
\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}\frac{2^n-n}{n+1}x^n
$$
 [/INST] This is not the full answer,this is work in progress anyway it might help author to get idea.
$$\sum_{n=2}^
\infty \frac{2^nx^n}{n+1}-\frac{nx^n}{n+1}=\frac{1}{x}\sum_{n=2}^\infty\frac{2^nx^{n+1}}{n+1}-\frac{1}{x}\sum_{n=2}^\infty\frac{nx^{n+1}}{n+1}=\frac{1}{x}(-x-x^2+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{2^nx^{n+1}}{n+1})-\frac{1}{x}(-\frac{x^2}{2}+\int\sum_{n=0}^\infty nx^ndx)=\frac{1}{x}(-x-x^2+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{2^nx^{n+1}}{n+1})-\frac{1}{x}(-\frac{x^2}{2}+\int\frac{x}{(1-x)^2})=-1-x+\frac{1}{2x}\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{2^{n}x^{n}}{n}+\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{x}(\frac{1}{1-x}+\log(1-x)) =\frac{}{}$$
