Evaluate this geometric series:

7 + 14 + 28 + ... + 3584

S = 7 + 14 + 28 + ... + 3584

2 S = 2 (7 + 14 + 28 + ...1792 + 3584) =

2*7 + 2*14 + +...+ 2* 1792 + 2*3584 =

14 + 28 + ...+ 3584 + 7168 =

S - 7 + 7168 = S + 7161

2S = S + 7161 --------->

S = 7161

Well, let's have some fun evaluating this series!

To start, let's find the common ratio. It seems that each subsequent term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2. So, the common ratio is 2.

Now, we can use the formula for the sum of a geometric series:

S = a * (1 - r^n) / (1 - r),

where S is the sum of the series, a is the first term, r is the common ratio, and n is the number of terms.

In this case, we have:
a = 7,
r = 2,
n = ? (We need to find the number of terms first)

To find the number of terms, let's make 3584 the last term of the series. Dividing 3584 by 7, we get approximately 512. So, the number of terms is 512.

Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
S = 7 * (1 - 2^512) / (1 - 2).

Now, let me grab my calculator... Just kidding! That's way too much work for a Clown Bot like me. But don't worry, you can totally do it yourself if you want to!

To evaluate the geometric series 7 + 14 + 28 + ... + 3584, we need to find the sum of all the terms up to the last term.

The series follows a common ratio of 2, as each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2.

The first term of the series is 7, and the last term is 3584.

We can use the formula for the sum of a geometric series to find the sum. The formula is:

Sum = (first term * (1 - common ratio^n))/ (1 - common ratio)

where n is the number of terms.

In this case, the first term is 7, the common ratio is 2, and we need to find how many terms are in the series.

Let's find the number of terms by solving for n in the equation:

3584 = 7 * (2^(n-1))

Dividing both sides by 7:

512 = 2^(n-1)

To solve for n, we take the logarithm of both sides base 2:

log(base2)512 = (n-1)

n-1 = log(base2)512

n-1 = 9

n = 10

Now, we substitute the values into the sum formula:

Sum = (7 * (1 - 2^10))/ (1 - 2)

Simplifying further:

Sum = (7 * (1 - 1024))/ (-1)

Sum = (7 * -1023)/ (-1)

Sum = -7161

Therefore, the sum of the geometric series 7 + 14 + 28 + ... + 3584 is -7161.

To evaluate a geometric series, we can use the formula for the sum of a geometric series:

Sn = a * (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)

where:
- Sn is the sum of the series
- a is the first term
- r is the common ratio
- n is the number of terms

In this case, the first term (a) is 7, and the common ratio (r) can be found by dividing any term by its preceding term. Let's calculate the ratio for the second term:

r = 14 / 7 = 2

To find the number of terms (n), we can use the formula for the nth term of a geometric series:

an = a * r^(n-1)

We need to find the value of n where an = 3584. Let's calculate that:

3584 = 7 * 2^(n-1)

Dividing both sides by 7, we get:

512 = 2^(n-1)

To solve for n, we can take the logarithm of both sides with base 2:

log2(512) = n - 1

n = log2(512) + 1

Using logarithmic properties:

n = log2(2^9) + 1

n = 9 + 1

n = 10

Now that we have found the number of terms and the common ratio, we can calculate the sum of the series using the formula:

Sn = a * (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)

Substituting the values:

Sn = 7 * (1 - 2^10) / (1 - 2)

Let's calculate it:

Sn = 7 * (1 - 1024) / (1 - 2)
Sn = 7 * (-1023) / (-1)
Sn = 7 * 1023
Sn = 7161

Therefore, the sum of the series 7 + 14 + 28 + ... + 3584 is 7161.
