The wording of this question is a bit confusing... You can't write a sequence in sigma notation, but rather a series or sum. I think the question is asking you to write the sum of the sequence,

$\dfrac12,\dfrac14,\dfrac18,\ldots,\dfrac1{64}$

which would be

$\dfrac12+\dfrac14+\dfrac18+\cdots+\dfrac1{64}$

in sigma notation.

To do this, notice that the denominator in each term is a power of 2, starting with $2^1=2$ and ending with $2^6=64$ . So in sigma notation, this series is

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^6\frac1{2^n}$

store number two gives a better discount .

if you go to store one and buy it for 573 with the 16% DISCOUNT, YOU GET 481.32, THEREFORE, STORE TWO IS BETTER(caps lock) also did store two have a discount?
