The easiest way is to use (& to memorize) the sum formula for a AP:
Sum = 1st term added to the last term & multiplied by half the number of terms
S = (a+l)n/2
S = (5 + 53)(7/2) = 203
Answer: -5100
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
![\sum^4_1[100(-4)^{n-1}]\qquad \rightarrow \qquad a_1=100\ \text{and r = -4}\\\\\\S_n=\dfrac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\\\\\S_4=\dfrac{100(1-(-4)^4)}{1-(-4)}\\\\\\.\quad=\dfrac{100(1-256)}{1+4}\\\\\\.\quad=\dfrac{100(-255)}{5}\\\\.\quad=20(-255)\\\\.\quad=-5100\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csum%5E4_1%5B100%28-4%29%5E%7Bn-1%7D%5D%5Cqquad%20%5Crightarrow%20%5Cqquad%20a_1%3D100%5C%20%5Ctext%7Band%20r%20%3D%20-4%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%3D%5Cdfrac%7Ba_1%281-r%5En%29%7D%7B1-r%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CS_4%3D%5Cdfrac%7B100%281-%28-4%29%5E4%29%7D%7B1-%28-4%29%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C.%5Cquad%3D%5Cdfrac%7B100%281-256%29%7D%7B1%2B4%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C.%5Cquad%3D%5Cdfrac%7B100%28-255%29%7D%7B5%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C.%5Cquad%3D20%28-255%29%5C%5C%5C%5C.%5Cquad%3D-5100%5C%5C)
<span>Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 7 two times, and the probability is 1/7 ^2
This is the </span><span>statement that best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have their birthdays on a Monday.
There are 7 days in a week, so there are 7 choices but only 1 Monday. So, 1/7 is the probability that a person's birthday falls on a Monday.
1st person asked will have 1/7 probability.
2nd person asked will also have 1/7 probability
So, (1/7)</span>² is the probability that both persons will have their birthdays on a Monday.
