OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Can you list all the givens based on that sigma that you have?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

hld on is that 2 to the i or 2 to the 1 at the end?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

a2=5 times 2^2=20 not 40.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

r=2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[A_1=10\]\[A_2=20\]\[r=2\]\[n=10\]

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Sorry for the disconnection.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[S_n=A_1( \frac{1-r^n}{1-r} )\]plug in numbers

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[S_n=10( \frac{1-2^{10}}{1-2} )=10\frac{1-1024}{1-2}=10\frac{-1023}{-1}=10 \times (1023)\]CORRECT.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Just tell me one thing, if it was with same conditions but infinite what would you say?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and yes I can help you with a similar prob.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Same thig, tell me everything based on the sigma.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[n=∞\]\[A_1=(2/3)\]\[A_2=(4/9)\]\[r=(2/3)\]AGREE?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Can you tell me if it converges or diverges, and explain?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and why?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

OK

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

So lets use.\[S_n=\frac{A_1}{1-r}\]

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[S_n=\frac{2/3}{1-2/3}=\frac{2/3}{1/3}=2\]

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Then no sum.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Anytime, ty for refreshing me...

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Too it last yr with a 97 on exam LOVE MATH!!!!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
