Answer:
answer is 90 for first term
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the terms be
First term x
We will use the formula s∞=x/1−r to find the sum of an infinite geometric series, where −1<r<1.
We know the sum and the common ratio, so we'll be solving for x where r =4/5
s∞=x/1−r
450=x/1−4/5
450=x/1/5
450=5x
x=90
this is the first term x1 = 90
we know that common ratio is 4/5, so multiplying the first term by factor 4/5 to get the second term
90 x 4/5= 72 second term
Answer:
C) 90
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of an infinite geometric series is:
S = a₁ / (1 − r)
where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio.
450 = a₁ / (1 − 4/5)
450 = a₁ / (1/5)
450 = 5a₁
a₁ = 90
