The given geometric series as shown in the question is seen to; Be converging with its' sum as 81
<h3>How to identify a converging or diverging series?</h3>
We are given the geometric series;
27 + 18 + 12 + 8 + ...
Now, we see that;
First term; a₀ = 27
Second Term; a₁ = 2(27/3)
Third term; a₂ = 2²(27/3²)
Fourth term; a₃ = 2³(27/3³)
Thus, the formula is;
2ⁿ(27/3ⁿ)
Applying limits at infinity gives;
2^(∞) * (27/3^(∞)) = 0
Since the terms of the series tend to zero, we can affirm that the series converges.
The sum of an infinite converging series is:
S_n = a/(1 - r)
S_n = 27/(1 - (2/3)
S_n = 81

<u>Answer:</u>
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
First set the equation to 0
Second, get the 12 on the right side of the equal sign by adding a -12 to each side
Square root both sides of the equal sign.
Take the square root on left sides of the equal sign.
Take the square root on the right side of the equal sign. Remember 
<u>AND</u>
we know there are 180° in π radians, how many degrees then in -3π/10 radians?
![\bf \begin{array}{ccll} degrees&radians\\ \cline{1-2} 180&\pi \\\\ x&-\frac{3\pi }{10} \end{array}\implies \cfrac{180}{x}=\cfrac{\pi }{~~-\frac{3\pi }{10}~~}\implies \cfrac{180}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{\pi}{1} }{~~-\frac{3\pi }{10}~~} \\\\\\ \cfrac{180}{x}=\cfrac{\pi }{1}\cdot \cfrac{10}{-3\pi }\implies \cfrac{180}{x}=-\cfrac{10}{3}\implies 540=-10x\implies \cfrac{540}{-10}=x \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill -54=x~\hfill](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccll%7D%20degrees%26radians%5C%5C%20%5Ccline%7B1-2%7D%20180%26%5Cpi%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20x%26-%5Cfrac%7B3%5Cpi%20%7D%7B10%7D%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B180%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B%5Cpi%20%7D%7B~~-%5Cfrac%7B3%5Cpi%20%7D%7B10%7D~~%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B180%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B%5Cfrac%7B%5Cpi%7D%7B1%7D%20%7D%7B~~-%5Cfrac%7B3%5Cpi%20%7D%7B10%7D~~%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Ccfrac%7B180%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B%5Cpi%20%7D%7B1%7D%5Ccdot%20%5Ccfrac%7B10%7D%7B-3%5Cpi%20%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B180%7D%7Bx%7D%3D-%5Ccfrac%7B10%7D%7B3%7D%5Cimplies%20540%3D-10x%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B540%7D%7B-10%7D%3Dx%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20%5Crule%7B34em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~%5Chfill%20-54%3Dx~%5Chfill)
Answer:
C a1= -2
an = an-1 +3
Step-by-step explanation:
an = -2+ (n-1)3
What is the first term? Let n=1
a1 = -2 + 0*3
a1 = -2
The difference between the terms is +3 (coefficient on (n-1))
The second term is the first term +3
The third term is the second term plus 3
The next term is the previous term +3
so an = an-1+ 3
