3x =15

then divide by 3 to remain with X

X = 5

Find the sum of the geometric series for which a = 160, r = 0.5, and n = 6.
harina [27]

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(1-0.5^6)}{1-0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(1-0.015625)}{0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(0.984378)}{0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=80(0.984378)

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=78.75
