ANSWER

D.
720


EXPLANATION

The infinite geometric series given to us is,

\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}180\times (\frac{3}{4})^{n-1}


The first term of this series is,



a_1=180\times (\frac{3}{4})^{1-1}

This implies that,

a_1=180\times (\frac{3}{4})^{0}


a_1=180


a_2=180\times (\frac{3}{4})^{2-1}


a_2=180\times (\frac{3}{4})^{1}



a_2=135



The common ratio of this sequence,



r =  \frac{a_2}{a_1}


r =  \frac{135}{180}


r =  \frac{3}{4}


The sum to infinity of this series is given by the formula,

S_{\infty}=\frac{a_1}{1 -  r}


We substitute the above values to get,

S_{\infty}=\frac{180}{1 -   \frac{3}{4} }


This simplifies to

S_{\infty}=\frac{180}{ \frac{1}{4} }

This implies that,

S_{\infty}=180 \times 4


S_{\infty}=720

The correct answer is D.

Taylor bought 200 shares of stock for $18.12 per share last year. He paid his broker a flat fee of $30. He sold te stock this mo
rusak2 [61]
The answer is $3990 heres why

First you need to find out what is the total you paied for the shares
$18.12x200= $3624

Then you need to add the flat fee to the spending chost
$3624+$30= $3654 

Now you re-mulitply the chost per stock to the tootle #'s of stock you sold
$21x200= $4200

Then you need to find out what how much you need to pay the stock broker
$4200x.05= $210
 
Then once you find out how much you need to pay him subtract that amount to the total money earned from selling your stocks
$4200-$210= $3990 

Then if you want to also find out your profit just subtract the total amount you payed for the stock and subtract it from the total amount you gained from the stock. 
$3990- $3654= $336 Profit
