Find S9 for the geometric sequence: an=2∙5n−2 Please show work

I guess that the geometric sequence is:

An = 2*5^(n - 2)

we usually have that that a geometric sequence is something like:

A*r^n.

so i will write the first two terms of our sequence separated, and i will calculate the summation of the first seven terms after n = 2.

A0 = 2*5^(-2) = 2/25

A1 = 2*5^-1 = 2/5

Then, the sum for a geometric sequence is:

SN = A(1 - r^N)/(1 - r)

in this case, A = 2 and r = 5, and i will use N = 7 for the sequence 2*5^n

S7 = 2*(1 - 5^7)/(1 - 5) = 39,062.

now we add the first terms that we obtained before and get:

S9 = 2/25 + 2/5 +  39,062 = 39,062.48

step-by-step explanation:

i believe that the answer is

b. y-1=-2(x-4)

hope this !
