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

I only know (b) and 28 (c)
(b) Multiples of 120= 120,240,360,480,600
Multiples of 150= 150,300,450,600
Both numbers have 600 as their first common multiple so the ANSWER is 600
28. (a) Common factors of 24= 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
Common factors of 64= 1,2,4,8,16,32,64
8 is the only common factor for both 24 and 64 so 8 is the ANSWER
