Answer:
58p+15
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we want to get rid of the parentheses in the equation. To do that, let's start with 7(1+10p). We multiply 7 by each item in the parenthesis, and get 7+70p. Keep that little thing in mind, we will use it later. Next, same process with the other part, and we get 8+48p. We multiplied both parts out, so now we just add like terms. 7 and 8 don't have letters, so we add them to get 15. 10p and 48p do have letters, so we add those together and get 58p. We can't add that to the other numbers, because 58p is 58 times p, and 15 doesn't have that p so it wouldn't work without knowing p. What we are left with, by simplifying the problem, is 58p+15, or 15+58p. The order doesn't matter, as long as you have that answer.
The number of terms, 'n' is 8
<h3 /><h3>How to determine the number of terms</h3>
Let's determine the common ratio;
common ratio, r = 3/1 = 3
The formula for sum of geometric series with 'r' greater than 1 is given as; Sn = a( r^n - 1) / (r - 1)
n is unknown
Sn = 3280
Substitute the value
3280 = 1 ( 3^n - 1) / 3- 1
3280 = 3^n -1 /2
Cross multiply
3280 × 2 = 3^n - 1
6560 + 1 = 3^n
6561 = 3^n
This could be represented as;
3^8 = 3^n
like coefficient cancels out
n = 8
Thus, the number of terms, 'n' is 8

"you can convert the percent to a fraction or decimal. While you might need to subtract a percent from a percent when working in finance, if you are working on homework you more likely will come across problems where you need to subtract a percent from a whole number."
