Answer:

Option B is correct.

sum of given geometric series is, 255

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate the geometric series: \sum_{i=1}^{8} 2^{i-1}

we can write this as:

1+2+4+.......+128

Formula for the sum of the geometric series:

S_n = \frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1} for r > 1

where

a is the first term

n is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

In the given series:

common ratio (r) = 2>1, n = 8 and first term(a) = 1

Since,

\frac{2}{1} = 2

\frac{4}{2} = 2 and so on...

then substitute the given values in [1] we have;

S_n = \frac{1((2)^8-1)}{2-1}

or

S_n = 256-1 = 255

Therefore, the sum of given geometric series is, 255

kherson [118]
If his water to cement ratio is 20 to 30, this means that if he uses 20 liters of water, he'd use 30 liters of cement.

The total mixture would then be 20+30=50 liters.

and the water would be 20/50=0.4 or 40% of the total mixture.
