Answer: the first term of the series is 128
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as
Sn = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
Where
n represents the number of term in the sequence.
a represents the first term in the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
From the information given,
r = 1/4 = 0.25
n = 4
S4 = 170
Therefore, the expression for the sum of the 4 terms, S4 is
170 = a(1 - 0.25^4)/(1 - 0.25)
170 = a(1 - 0.00390625)/(1 - 0.25)
170 = a(0.99609375)/(0.75)
170 = 1.328125a
a = 170/1.328125
a = 128
Answer:
Value of y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
By the midpoint theorem of the triangles,
"Segment joining midpoints of the two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and measure half the length of the third side."
Therefore, from the figure attached,
In ΔFGH,
J and K are the mid points of the two sides GH and FH.
By theorem, segment JK║GF and m(JK) = 
(5y + 3) = 2(2y + 5)
5y + 3 = 4y + 10
5y - 4y = 10 - 3
y = 7
