Use the formula to evaluate the series 3-9+27-81+...-a8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
6 0

In the given series, we see that the first term is 3 and the common ratio between the succeeding terms is -3. To solve for the sum of the first 8 terms, we use the equation,

                                    Sum = (a1)(1 – r^n) / (1 – r)

Substituting the known terms,

                                    Sum = (3)(1 – (-3)^8)/(1 - -3) = -4920

<span>Thus, the answer is -4920.</span>

Three angles of a hexagon are congruent. The other three angles are also congruent, each with a measure twice that of the first
Serga [27]
The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is 720 degrees. If 3 angles are congruent, each with measure x degrees, and the other 3 angles are also congruent to each other, each with measure 2x degrees, then the total sum of all 6 angles would be 3x + 3(2x) = 9x. If this is equal to 720, then x = 80 degrees, while 2x = 160 degrees.
Therefore, there are 3 80-degree angles and 3 160-degree angles.
