The sum of the terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio lesser than 1 is calculated through the equation,
Sn = (a1) x (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)
Substituting the known values,
S5 = (6) x (1 - (1/3)^5) / (1 - 1/3) = 242/27
Thus, the sum of the first five terms is approximately equal to 8.96.
Answer:
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2y + 1 = y-5
-2 - y = -5 - 1
-3y = -6
y = -6 ÷ -3
y = 2
