Answer:
There is no expression to evaluate.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 7 × ( 3^n - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric progression which has its nth term to be
Tn = ar^n- 1. Now from the question given, the sequence are 7, 21, 63, 189. This is an example of a finite sequence, To find the common ratio, you divide the second term by the first term. So
r = 21/7
= 3. , a = 7
Now to find the nth term put the values in the formula above.
Tn =ar^n-1
= 7(3)^n - 1)
= 7 × ( 3^n - 1 ).
Note, it is not 21^n - 1.
40(12.62) + 7(12.62(1.5)) = 504.80 + 7(18.93) = 504.80 + 132.51 =
637.31 <===
