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 measures of angles B and C are 118° and 62°, respectively.
<h3>What are the measures of two missing angles generated by the intersection of two lines?</h3>
A system of three angles is generated by two lines intersecting each other. In accordance with Euclidean geometry, angle C is opposite to the angle with measure 62° and angle B is supplementary to the same angle.
When two angles are opposite, then both have the same measure, and when two angles are supplementary, then the sum of their measures equals 180°. Therefore, the measures of angles B and C are 118° and 62°, respectively.

The cost of 1 vanilla ice cream and 1 strawberry ice cream should total to $31. Since you only bought one of each flavor, you simply have to add their unit prices.
Cost for 1 carton of strawberry ice cream + Cost for 1 carton of vanilla ice cream = Total Cost
Total Cost = s + v --> this is the general equation
Since s = 1.5 + v, the modified equation would be
Total Cost = 1.5 + v + v
Total Cost = 1.5 + 2v
Let 1 number equal x
<span>Let the other number equal 1/2x + 6
x + (1/2x + 6) =21
1 & 1/2 x + 6 =21
1 & 1/2 x =15
