The equation for a finite geometric sequence is Sn=a1((1-r^n)/(1-r))

a1=1

r=.5/1=.5

n=5

Using the equation:

Sn=a1((1-r^n)/(1-r))=1((1-.5^5)/(1-.5))=1((1-.03125)/(1-.5))=1(.96875/.5)=1*1.9375=1.9375

Answer Choices:

A. 1/12 or .083

B. 93

C. -1/48 or -.02083

D. 31/16 or 1.9375

The Answer is D. 31/16
