The sum formula for a geometric sequaence is:
sum(n) = a1(1-r^n)/1-r
Where n is the number of terms, a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio:
s(8) = 3(1-1/2^8) / (1-1/2)
s(8) = 3(1-1/256) / 1/2
s(8) = 2 253/256 / 1/2
s(8) = 765/128
The answer is C.
Answer:
The actual length of the lap = 250 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The scale factor of the map is 1:1000
∵ The length of the lap on the map is 25 cm
∴ 
Where x is the actual length of a lap
∴ x = (25 × 1000) ÷ 1 = 25000 cm
∵ 1 meter = 100 centimeter
∴ The actual length of the lap = 25000 ÷ 100 = 250 meters
First you add 3 and 2 so that is 5 and then you subtract 5 from 9 so the answer is 4.
