we know that a₁ = 1, and aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + 2, is another way of saying, we add 2 to get the next term, namely, 2 is the common difference.

Hence, the sum of the given GP is 16347
<h2>What is a series?</h2>
a series is the cumulative sum of a given sequence of terms. Typically, these terms are real or complex numbers, but much more generality is possible.
<h3>How to solve?</h3>
we can identify from the given geomertric series.
first term = a(say) = 3
geometric factor of progression = r(say) = 4
Sum of the first 7 terms = a(
) ,where n is 7
Sum = 3(
) = 16348-1
= 16347
Hence, the sum of the given GP is 16347.

Answer:
2/5 of a mile
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest approach is to realise that one hour is 3 times longer than
20 minutes. The longer the time, the more they will pave.
2/5 of a mile, in 20 minutes, how much in 60 minutes?(#)
They will pave 3 times more.
2/15 x 3/1 = 6/15 of a mile
6/15 = 2/5 of a mile
V= 720.8 cubed
Explanation- 4.25 x 2 = 8.5
H= 8.5
L= 10.6
W= 8
8.5 x 10.6 x 8 = 720.8
