We use the law of the sum of the 3 first terms of the geometric sequence:
\sum_{i=0}^35\left(\dfrac{-2}{3}\right)^i=5\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{-2}{3}\right)^4}{1-\left(\dfrac{-2}{3}\right)}\\=5\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{3^4-2^4}{3^4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)}\\=3\left(\dfrac{65}{81}\right)=\dfrac{65}{27}

gogolik [260]

Answer:

30^{\circ}\text{C}

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature that Aaron saw was 86^{\circ}\text{F}

The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is

C=\dfrac{5]{9}(F-32)

\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{5}{9}\times (86-32)

\Rightarrow C=30^{\circ}\text{C}

The given temperature in Celsius that Aaron found would be 30^{\circ}\text{C}.
