Answer: 7665

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence {15, 2(15), ... , a₉} we know the following

  • the first term (a₁) = 15
  • the common ratio (r) = 2
  • the number of terms (n) = 9

Input the information above into the Sum formula:

[tex]S_n=\dfrac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\S_9=\dfrac{15(1-2^9)}{1-2}\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{15(1-512)}{-1}\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{15(-511)}{-1}\\\\.\quad =7665[/tex]
