Explanation & Answer

Hi Please check the attached file for details, let me know if you have any question, thank you. James,

What is the sum of the first eight terms of the series?

(−800)+(−200)+(−50)+(−12.5)+...
=a1(1-r^n)/(1-r)
=-800[1-(1/4)^8]/((1-1/4) =
=--1066.65
Round the answer to two decimal places.






−1066.68
−1066.65
−1066.60
−1062.50
What is the sum of the first 7 terms of the series −4+8−16+32−... ?
S = a1(1-r^7)/(1-r) = -4(1-(-2)^7)(1+2) = -4*(1+128)/3 = -172

Enter your answer in the box.

172
What is the sum of the series?

3+12+48+192+...+49,152
an = 3*4^(n-1) = 49152
4^(n-1) = 16384 = 4^7
n=8
S= 3(1-4^8)/(-3) = 65535


49,907


56,383


65,535


81,918
A bike rental company rented out 6 bikes in its first month. The number of bikes it rented tripled each
month.

What was the total number of bikes the company rented out for the first 6 months?
S = 6*(1-3^6)/(1-3) = 2184
Enter your answer in the box.
2184
