The sum of a geometric sequence is:

s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r) in our case:

s(n)=3(1-4^n)/(1-4)

s(n)=-(1-4^n)

s(n)=(4^n)-1  and s=1023

(4^n)-1=1023

4^n=1024

n ln4=ln1024

n=(ln1024)/(ln4)

n=5

Find the value of x so that the function has the given value.
nataly862011 [7]

For h(x) = -7x + 10, x =1

For r(x) = 4/5x+ 7 , x = -15

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the value of x on which the functions will have given values, we will put the functions equal to the given values

So,

<u>h(x) = -7x + 10; h(x) = 3</u>

h(x) = -7x+10\\3 = -7x+10\\3-10 = -7x+10-10\\-7 = -7x

Dividing both sides by -7

\frac{-7x}{-7} = \frac{-7}{-7}\\x = 1

<u>r(x) =  4/5x+7; r(x) = -5</u>

r(x) = \frac{4}{5}x +7\\-5 = \frac{4}{5}x +7\\-5-7 = \frac{4}{5}x\\-12 = \frac{4}{5}x\\x = -12 * \frac{5}{4}\\x = -15

<u></u>
