9–15. Geometric sums Evaluate each geometric sum.
{Use of Tech}∑ k = 0 to 20(2/5)²ᵏ
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the type of series given. The sum is a geometric series because each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a constant ratio.
Write down the general form of a geometric series sum: \(S_n = a \frac{1 - r^{n+1}}{1 - r}\), where \(a\) is the first term, \(r\) is the common ratio, and \(n\) is the number of terms minus one.
Determine the first term \(a\) by substituting \(k=0\) into the term expression: \(a = \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^{2 \cdot 0} = \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^0\).
Identify the common ratio \(r\) by examining the factor that each term is multiplied by to get the next term. Since the exponent increases by 2 each time, \(r = \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^2\).
Substitute \(a\), \(r\), and \(n=20\) into the geometric sum formula and simplify the expression to find the sum without calculating the final numerical value.

Geometric Series
A geometric series is the sum of the terms of a geometric sequence, where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant ratio. The series has the form a + ar + ar² + ... + arⁿ, where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Sum Formula for a Finite Geometric Series
The sum of the first n+1 terms of a geometric series is given by S = a(1 - r^(n+1)) / (1 - r), provided r ≠ 1. This formula allows quick calculation of the sum without adding each term individually.
