Evaluate to get a closed form solution.
I encountered this by rearranging the below equation which I also need some help solving: $\sum_{n=1}^N n {n \choose k} $
I'm not very good at solving generating functions but I believe the right approach is to rearrange the terms in order to get some sort of recursive relation.
If solving the title equation is not the right approach in order to solve the equation in the body please let me know!
