Three geometric progression's P, Q, and R, are such that there sums to infinity are the first three terms respectively of an ari

thmetic progression.
Progression P is 2,1, 1/2,1/4,...
Progression Q is 3,1,1/3,1/9,....

A. Find the sun to infinity of Progression R.
B. Given that the first term of R is 4, find the sun of the first three terms of R.

S= a(1-r ⁿ) /(1-r) & when r is < 1 & n →∞, the sum becomes S= a/(1-r)

Progression P is 2,1, 1/2,1/4,.. ==> r = 1/2
Sum of P when  n--> ∞ = 2/(1-1/2) ==> S =4

Progression Q is 3,1,1/3,1/9,....==> r = 1/3
Sum of Q when  n--> ∞ = 3/(1-1/3) ==> S =4.5

GIVEN THAT 4, 9/2 & X (to be calculated later is a geometric Progression, hence 9/2 - 4 = 0.5 =d (common difference , so X = 4.5+0.5 & X = 5

Sum of R =5 Then => 5=  4 /(1-r)  & r=1/5
Then the sum of R = 4/(1-1/5) ==> S of R =5

Write an answer in the form of rooted ax+b=x+c
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
Lets solve for a
ax+b=x+c
step 1:add -b to both sides
ax+b-b=c+x+-b
step 2:divide both sides
ax=-b+c+x
ax/x=-b+c+x/x
a=-b+c+x/x
answer:
a=-b+c+x/x
