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>
Let unknown integer be n.
So then your sentence would translate to 3n² + n = 2.
If you need to solve for n then we can move 2 to left side by subtract both sides by 2:
3n² + n - 2 = 0
Now you can factor:
3n² + 3n -2n - 2 = 0
3n( n + 1 ) - 2( n + 1 ) = 0
( 3n - 2 )( n + 1 ) = 0
3n - 2 = 0 OR n + 1 = 0
3n = 2 OR n = -1
n = 2/3 OR n = -1
Final answer: n = 2/3 OR n = -1
Answer: B.
Step-by-step explanation: This is because you can't possibly have an exponent, there are no two of the same value being multiplied together.
