The sum of the first ten terms is 1048575.
What is the sum of the first terms of a geometric sequence?
In this problem we must determine the sum of the first ten terms of a series generated by a geometric expression. First, we determine the values of the first ten terms of the series:
a₁ = 3, a₂ = 12, a₃ = 48, a₄ = 192, a₅ = 768, a₆ = 3072, a₇ = 12288, a₈ = 49152, a₉ = 196608, a₁₀ = 786432
Finally, we calculate the sum of the first ten terms is:
s = 3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768 + 3072 + 12288 + 49152 + 196608 + 786432
s = 1048575
The sum of the first ten terms is 1048575.
