\( \sum \limits_{\nu=0}^{n} \sum \limits_{k=0}^{\nu}\left(\begin{array}{l}\nu \\ k\end{array}\right) 3^{\nu} \)
\( = \sum \limits_{\nu=0}^{n} 3^{\nu} \sum \limits_{k=0}^{\nu}\left(\begin{array}{l}\nu \\ k\end{array}\right) \)
\( = \sum \limits_{\nu=0}^{n} 3^{\nu} * 2^{\nu} \)
\( = \sum \limits_{\nu=0}^{n} 6^{\nu} \)
\( = \frac {6^{n+1}-1}{5} \)
