Answer:
Option B is correct.
sum of given geometric series is, 255
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate the geometric series:
we can write this as:
Formula for the sum of the geometric series:
for r > 1
where
a is the first term
n is the number of terms
r is the common ratio
In the given series:
common ratio (r) = 2>1, n = 8 and first term(a) = 1
Since,
and so on...
then substitute the given values in [1] we have;
or
Therefore, the sum of given geometric series is, 255
