The sum of the first n terms in a geometric sequence given the first term (a1) and the common ratio (r) is calculated through the equation,

                            <span>Sn </span>= (<span><span><span>a1</span>(1−<span>r^n</span>) / (</span><span>1−r)

Substituting the known terms,
                           Sn = (20)(1 - (1/4)^4)) / (1 - 1/4)
                           Sn = 26.5625

Thus, the sum of the first four terms is 26.5625. </span></span>

The simple interest on a certain sum for 5years at 8% per annum is Rs200 less than the simple interest on the same sum for 3year
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest on a certain sum for 5years at 8% per annum is Rs200 less than the simple interest on the same sum for 3years and 4months at 18% per annum.Find the sum​

The formula for Simple Interest = PRT

From above question, we have to find the Principal

The simple interest on a certain sum for 5years at 8% per annum is Rs200

Hence,

R = 8%

T = 5 years

Rs 200 = P × 8% × 5

P = 200/8% × 5

P = Rs500

The principal = Rs 500

The simple interest on the same sum for 3years and 4months at 18% per annum.

Simple Interest = PRT

R = 18%

T = 3 years and 4 months

Converted to years

T = 3 + (4 months/12 months)

T = 3.33 years

Hence,

Simple Interest = Rs 500 × 18% × 3.33 years

= Rs 299.7

What is the probability of choosing a
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Probability of choosing a penny at random is 1/5 or 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

For many probabilities like this one, you have to add the total of materials or items together, even if they are different colors, shape, coin type, etc.

you have 12 pennies, 19 nickles, 14 dimes, and 15 quarters. This adds up to a total of 60 coins. Twelve of those are pennies.

You have twelve possible pennies to choose at random from a total of 60 in a bag.

So 12/60/ This simplifies to a probability of 1/5. If you divide 1 by 5 than it would be 0.2

The probability of choosing a penny from a bag of coins is 1/5, or 0.2.

Hope this helps
