Sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is Sn = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
Sn = 20(1 - (1/4)^5)/(1 - 1/4) = 20(1 - 1/1024)/(3/4) = 20(1023/1024)/(3/4) = 26 41/64

Rayshawn has a certain amount of money if he spends $20 then he has 1/3 of the original amount how much money did Rayshawn have
erik [133]

Answer:

Rayshawn originally had $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Rayshawn has a certain amount of money. Let us say this amount is $x.

ii) Rayshawn spends $20 which means that he is left with $(x - 20)

iii) it is also given that amount of money left after spending $20 is \dfrac{1}{3} of the original amount, $x, the amount remaining is \dfrac{\$x}{3}.

iv) from the information given in ii) and iii) we get

     $(x - 20) = \dfrac{\$x}{3},  Therefore we get 3x - 60 = x , therefore 2x = 60,

  Therefore x = $30. Rayshawn originally had $30.
