- Determine whether the sum of the infinite series is defined. 24+(12)+6+(3)+arrow_forwardFor the following exercise, determine whether the infinite series has a sum. If so, write the formula for the sum. If not, state the reason. 24. m=14m1arrow_forward7. Take the Fibonacci sequence 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 etc. and divide the first term by 100, the second by 1000, the third by 10000, etc. and then add them all up (to infinity)-the sum is 1/89. Wow. [Hint: The standard approach to finding the sum of an infinite geometric series is to multiply the series by something (r) and then subtract the two versions of the series, one from the other, and see what we get. The same type of trick might work here.]arrow_forward
- Find the sum of each of the geometric series given below. For the value of the sum, enter an expression that gives the exact value, rather than entering an approximation. A. – 12 + 3 – + 3 64 3 256 3 - - 4. 16 2-8+금 2 27 В. 81 || ||arrow_forward1. Find the sum to infinity of the GP: 7 + 2/7 + 4/343 + 8/16087+... . Find the least number of terms of the series that must be taken to give a sum which exceeds 99.99% of the sum to infinity. Write final answers in fraction (proper or improper) for the sum and whole number for n. 2.An arithmetic sequence has first term a and common difference d. It is given that the sum of the first four terms is more than the sum of the next four terms by 8. Also, the first term, third and sixth term of the sequence are three consecutive terms of a geometric progression. Find the exact values of a and d. 3. An arithmetic progression has 3 as its first term. Also, the sum of the first 8 terms is twice the sum of the first 5 terms. Find the common difference. 4. The sum of the first 10 terms of a G.P. is equal to 244 times the sum of first 5 terms. Find common ratio.arrow_forwardIII. SHOW ALL NECESSARY SOLUTIONS NEATLY AND ORDERLY 1. Given the nth term of the geometric sequence: a, = (-4)(-5" a. Generate the first four terms b. Find the sum of the series if it exists as n goes to infinity. 2. Find the fifth term of the geometric sequence if its 3d term is -486 and its 8 term is 2. 3. Insert three geometric means between 8 and 5000. 4. If a ball is tossed with a height of 20 ft, bounces back to a height of 10 ft. and continues to rebound half of the previous height, what is the total distance traveled by the ball a. in its 5th bounce? b. as it comes to rest?arrow_forward
