find a1 in a geometric series for which S12=3071.25 and r=2

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

use the formula for sum of n terms:- Sn = a1 (r^n - 1) ------- r - 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

substitute the values @tbaker789

OpenStudy (anonymous):

al= Sn x (r-1) all over (r^n-1)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

you have n = 12 , r = 2 and Sn = 3071.25 plug these into the formula and solve for a1

ok i got it
