What is the sum of the n terms of the series 4 + 12 + 36 + 108 + . . . ?

1 answer:

8 0

Sum of n terms of a geometric series is
Sn = a1 (r^n-1)/(r-1)
a1 = 1st term = 4
r = common ratio = 12/4 = 3
so, the sum is
Sn = 4 (3^n-1)/(3-1) = 2(3^n-1)

$V=2 \text{ in}^3\\
A=2\pi r (r+h)\\
h=?\\\\
V=\pi r^2h=2\\
\pi r^2h=2\\
h=\dfrac{2}{\pi r^2}\\
A=2\pi r\left(r+\dfrac{2}{\pi r^2}\right)\\
\boxed{A=2\pi r^2+\dfrac{4}{r}}
