Answer:4.18
Step-by-step explanation:
2.9+2/9
The sum formula for a geometric sequaence is:
sum(n) = a1(1-r^n)/1-r
Where n is the number of terms, a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio:
s(8) = 3(1-1/2^8) / (1-1/2)
s(8) = 3(1-1/256) / 1/2
s(8) = 2 253/256 / 1/2
s(8) = 765/128
The answer is C.
The signs of the numbers in the problem matter because if a number is negative in the equation than you're answer could be negative. ex. -3/9= -3 but if the negative sign wasn't there than the answer would be wrong bc the answer would be positive.
hope thats what you need hope it helps.
