What is the sum of the first 7 terms of the geometric series:

Mathematics

Answer:

-15.875

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can sum up the first 5 terms.

-8 + (-4) = -12

-12 + (-2) = -14

-14 + (-1) = -15

-15 + (-1/2) = -15.5

Next, we can find a pattern in the data. We can tell that the next number is one half of the current number. For example, -4 is one half of -8. To find the next number, we simply multiply our current number by one half. Thus, the sixth number is -1/4 and the seventh is -1/8. Adding these to our current total, we have

-15.5 - 1/4 = -15.75

-15.5 - 1/8 = -15.875 as our answer

Select Equal or Not Equal to correctly classify each statement.

The first problem is true because with multiplication it doesn't matter which order it is in.

The second problem is false because you will get a different quotient depending on which numbers are on which side of the equation.

These are the two rules for when a and b are positive numbers.
a + b = b + a
a - b ≠ b -a
a - b = -b + a

For example:

5.71 + 2.84 = 2.84 + 5.71
8.55 = 8.55

5.71 - 2.84 ≠ 2.84 - 5.71
2.87 ≠ -2.87

5.71 - 2.84 = -2.84 + 5.71
2.87 = 2.87



These are the rules for when a and b are negative numbers.
a + b = b + a
a - b = b + a

For example,

-6.2 + (-3.96) = -3.96 + (-6.2)
-6.2 - 3.96 = -3.96 - 6.2
-10.16 = -10.16

-6.2 - (3.96) = -3.96 + (-6.2)
-10.16 = -10.16



Also, if a is a positive number, while b is a negative number, we see these rules:
a + b = a - b
a - b = a + b

For example,

5.71 + (-6.2) = 5.71 - 6.2
-0.49 = -0.49

5.71 - (-6.2) = 5.71 + 6.2
11.91 = 11.91


Also, if a is a negative number while b is a positive number, then these rules will apply:
a + b = b - a
a - b = -b - a

For example,

-3.96 + 2.84 = 2.84 - 3.96
-1.12 = <span>-1.12
</span>
-3.96 - 2.84 = -2.84 - 3.96
-6.8 = -6.8


I hope this helps! :)
