Find the sum of the first 6 terms of 3 - 6 + 12 + …

Mathematics

Natalka [10]3 years ago

Answer:

S_6 = -63

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence above is a geometric sequence.

The common ratio (r) = \frac{-6}{3} = \frac{12}{-6} = -2

The common ratio < 1, therefore, the formula for the sum of nth terms of the sequence would be: S_n = \frac{a_1(1 - r^n)}{1 - r}

a1 = 3

r = -2

n = 6

Plug in the values into the formula

S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (-2^6)}{1 - (-2)}

S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (64)}{1 + 2}

S_6 = \frac{3(-63)}{3}

S_6 = -63
