The Amazon Rainforest is one of the most important ecosystems in the world. However, it is slowly being destroyed. Areas of the

rainforest are being cleared for farms and roads, and much of the wood is also being harvested and sold. There are several compelling reasons to protect this area. First, a significant number of pharmaceuticals are made from plants that have been discovered in the rainforest, and it's quite possible there are still important plants that have not yet been discovered. Secondly, the rainforest provides a significant portion of the world's oxygen and also absorbs great amounts of carbon dioxide. Without rainforests, global warming could accelerate. 
The main purpose of the passage is

 to explain why the Amazon Rainforest should be protected.
 to discuss how the rainforest has helped in the development of medications.
 to present the major reasons why the Amazon Rainforest is being destroyed.
 to argue that rainforest destruction is a major cause of global warming.

I think it is the first answer choice " to explain why the Amazon Rainforest should be protected." Because that's what the passage is about. Someone explaining why the Rainforest should be protected and what will happen if it is destroyed.

Calculate, to four decimal places, the first ten terms of the sequence. an = 1 + − 1 2 n
LenKa [72]

The sum of the first ten terms of the given sequence when approximated to four decimal places is; 9.6758

<h3>What is the sum of the sequence?</h3>

We are given the formula for the sequence as;

aₙ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)ⁿ

Thus;

First term; a₁ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)¹ = 0.5

a₂ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)² = 1.25

a₃ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)³ = 0.875

a₄ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)⁴ = 1.0625

Fifth term; a₅ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)⁵ = 0.96875

a₆ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)⁶ = 1.01563

a₇ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)⁷ = 0.99219

a₈ =  1 + (⁻¹/₂)⁸ = 1.00391

a₉ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)⁹ =  0.99805

Tenth term; a₁₀ = 1 + (⁻¹/₂)¹⁰ = 1.0098

Thus, sum of all those ten terms is;

S₁₀ = 9.6758
