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>

Stratified design with color of paper as the blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental design that this question uses is the stratified design with color of paper as the blocks

A stratified design is one where the population has been divided into strata that are homogeneous. A good number of participants would then be picked for each of the stratum. The homogeneous strata are also known as the blocks and here in this question we have color of paper as the block here.

The students are of different school levels, elementary, high school and middle school. Each of these levels have 100 students. The students in each levels are halved and each half is randomly assigned information on either a white paper or a blue paper.

damaskus [11]
The gross income is $85,463
Here are the deduction before tax is applied:
<span>$896 - income
</span>$2,145 - charitable donations
<span>$3,473 - medical expenses
2 x </span><span>$3,650 - exemptions

Adding all the deductions:
</span>$896 + $2,145 + $3,473 + 2 x $3,650 = $13,814

Subtracting this from the gross income:
$85,463 - $13,814 = $66,129

Which of the equation is graphed below
Darina [25.2K]
A, because 1/4 is your slope of the line. which means you find a point where the line intersects and count 1 up and four over to the right and should end up where the line touches the graph again. if it were to be -1/4 it would be opposite and the line would be going the other way. and 1 would be your y-intercept. this is where the line crosses over the y axis at 1! hope you found this helpful!
