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>
4) -0.3 = -1/3 < -1/7 since the bigger a negative number is the less positive it is. 1/8 is positive so it is clear that it should be placed last. & thus do all options this way.
5) B
Area of a triangle = ½ bh.
where b = base &
h = height.
Area of outer shape = (½ x 16 x 12) in^2.
= 96 in^2.
Area of unshaded inner shape = (½ x 3 x 4) in^2.
= 6 in^2.
Area of shaded region = (96 – 6) in^2.
= 90 in^2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The radius of circle O is r, and the radius of circle X is r'.
To prove: Circle O is similar to circle X.
Proof: Move the center of the smaller circle onto the center of the largest circle. Translate the circle X by the vector XA onto circle O. The circles now have the same center.
A dilation is needed to increase the size of circle X to coincide with the circle O. A value which when multiplied by r' will create r.
The scale factor x to increase X:
⇒
A translation followed by a dilation with scale factor will map one circle to the other, thus proving the given both circles similar.
Therefore, circle O is similar to circle X.

Solution
According to remainder theorem, when f(x) is divided by (x+2), Remainder =f(−2)
f(x)=5x3+2x2−6x+12
f(−2)=5(−2)3+2(−2)2−6(−2)+12
=5×−8+2×4+12+12
=−40+32=−8
∴ Remainder=−8
