In a Geometric Sequence,<span> each term is found by </span>multiplying<span> the previous term by a </span>constant<span>. For this case, the constant is 4. To find the sum of the geometric sequence with 8 terms, we use the formula as follows:
</span>∑(ar^k) = a ( 1-r^n) / (1-r) <span> where a is the first term, r is the constant, n is the number of terms
