It will converge if the common factor  r  is between 0 and 1.
For example:-
 A GS with  first term a1 = 2  and d = 1/2,   the  terms are:-

2 , 1 , 1/2, 1/4, 1/8,1/16 and so on

Each term gets smaller and smaller and they will become very small - close to 0.   The sum will converge to a certain value also.
In this case it will converge to  2 /( 1 - 1/2) = 4

If d > 1  the terms will increase without bounds and the sum gets bigger and bigger . The series  diverges.

for example  2, 8, 32, 128, 512 ....  where a1 = 2 and d = 4.

Answer:

Nina is not correct because 393.5$ less then yesterday's ticket sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find total sales she he is not correct because

3 / 4 of 1440 = 1,080$ ticket sales from yesterday

and 295.25 - 33.50 = 261.75$

Therefore, ( 3 / 4 * 1440 ) + ( 295.25 - 33.50 ) = 1,341.75$ sale of today

Ticket from yesterday and today

1,080 - 1,341.75 = 393.5

393.5$ less then yesterday's ticket.
