What is the sum of the geometric sequence 4, 16, 64, ƒ if there are 8 terms?

In a Geometric Sequence, each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant. For this case, the constant is 4. To find the sum of the geometric sequence with 8 terms, we use the formula as follows:

∑(ar^k) = a ( 1-r^n) / (1-r)

where a is the first term, r is the constant, n is the number of terms

 ∑(ar^k) = 4 ( 1-4^8) / (1-4)
∑(ar^k) = 87380
