The fourth term of a geometric series is 10 and the seventh term of the series is 80. Find the sum to 10 terms of the series.
1 answer:
The geometric series with 4th term as 10 and 7th term as 80 has the sum of the first tenth terms as 1278.75.
<h3>How to find sum of terms in geometric series?</h3>
aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹
where
- a = first term
- r = common ratio
- n = number of terms
Therefore,
10 = ar³
80 = ar⁶
Hence,
a = 10 / r³
80 = (10 / r₃) r⁶
80 = 10r³
r³ = 80 / 10
r = ∛8
r = 2
a = 10 / 2³
a = 10 / 8 = 5 / 4
The sum of 10 terms can be calculated as follows:
Sₙ = a(rⁿ - 1) / r - 1
Sₙ = 5 / 4 (2¹⁰ - 1) / 2 - 1
Sₙ = 5 / 4 (1024 - 1) / 1
Sₙ = 1.25(1023)
Sₙ = 1278.75

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A = pi*r^2
We first plug in 25 for A
25 = pi * r^2
Solve
We can then plug in r for circumference formula
C = 2pi * r
