Not quite. First, you didn't use "x..." in the opening equation. Second, you've failed to tie your geometric series to the original question. I'd say you'll end up dividing by zero somewhere along the way.
But, thank you for an intelligent post! It's always nice to have a polite intellectual discussion.
