Answer:  The correct option is (B) 2044.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the sum of a 9-term geometric sequence when the first term is 4 and the last term is 1,024.

We know that

the n-th term of a geometric sequence with first term a and common ratio r is given by

a_n=ar^{n-1}.

According to the given information, we have

a=4

and

ar^{9-1}=1024\\\\\Rightarrow 4\times r^8=1024\\\\\Rightarrow r^8=\dfrac{1024}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow r^8=256\\\\\Rightarrow r^8=2^8\\\\\Rightarrow r=2.

Therefore, the sum of the 9-term geometric sequence is given by

S_9\\\\\\=\dfrac{a(r^9-1)}{r-1}\\\\\\=\dfrac{4\times(2^9-1)}{2-1}\\\\\\=\dfrac{4\times(512-1)}{1}\\\\=4\times511\\\\=2044.

Thus, the required sum of the 9-term sequence is 2044.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. The first company charges $4004 to rent
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
4004 + 50.50t = 300.75t
4004 = 300.75t - 50.50t
4004 = 250.25t
4004 / 250.25 = t
16 = t <=== they charge the same at 16 tons

300.75(16) = 4812 <== they cost the same
