I have done a bunch of these of problems, but this one step looks wrong in the solution for this problem.  https://www.bartleby.com/solution-answer/chapter-62-problem-71e-calculus-volume-2-17th-edition/9781938168062/in-the-following-exercises-express-each-series-as-a-rational-function-71-n11-x3-2n1/b209f360-2097-11e9-8385-02ee952b546e

On the very first step when I distribute the (x-3)^(2n-1) exponent in the denominator to be (x-3)^2n and (x-3)^-1, the (x-3)^-1, should flip up to the numerator (not stay in the denominator as (x-3)), but it doesn't according to the answer key.  And the answer is right but that first step LOOKS wrong.  Can you help explain that exponent distribution?

Follow-up Question

This solution was very helpful.  I see the part I was missing was shifting the index from n=1 to n=0, so that it is possible to create the rational function in the form a/(1-r).  Is there an easy procedure to go from n=1 to n=0 without working out the terms to see what the new sum is?  I have seen the generalized procedure for shifting from any n to any other n, but is there a quick way to go from n=1 to n=0 for a power series?
