Hello, would be very nice if someone could help me ! :)

A finite geometric series is the sum of a sequence of numbers. Take the sequence
1, 2, 4, 8, ..., for example. Notice that each number is twice the value of the
previous number. So, a number in the sequence can be represented by the
function f(n) = 2^n-1. One way to write the sum of the sequence through the 5th
number in the sequence is ∑^5 n-1 2^n-1.
This equation can also be written as S5 = 2^0+2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4. If we multiply this equation by 2. the equation becomes 2(S5) = 2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4+ 2^5

What happens if you subtract the two equations and solve for S5? Can you use this information to come up with a way to find any geometric series Sn in the
form ∑^a n-1 b^n-1 ?

The 8 degree polynomial for the given roots can be written as  p(x) =  x⁸ - x⁷- 12x⁶ - 4x⁵ + 30x⁴ + 51x³ + 18x².

What is factor theorem?

The factor theorem states that for a polynomial p(x) if there exists a real number a such that p(a) = 0, then (x - a) is one of the factors of p(x).

The roots of the polynomial are given as follows,

Number of roots at -2 = 1

Number of roots at 3 = 2

Number of roots at 0 = 2

And, number of roots at -1 = 3.

Now, the polynomial can be written using factor theorem as,

p(x) = x²(x + 2)(x - 3)²(x + 1)³

      = x²(x + 2)(x²- 6x + 9)(x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1)

      = x⁸ - x⁷- 12x⁶ - 4x⁵ + 30x⁴ + 51x³ + 18x²

Hence, the polynomial for given roots can be written as p(x) =  x⁸ - x⁷- 12x⁶ - 4x⁵ + 30x⁴ + 51x³ + 18x².

Example: 1/4 - 1/8= ?

1: Find the common denominator (bottom number)

2: If the common denominator is 8 then you multiply 1/4 by 2/2 to get the denominator of 8. If you needed then you can multiply the other fraction to get the same denominator.

3: Once you get multiply that then you get 2/8 -1/8.

4: Subtract the numerator (top number) 1

This list is already sorted for you, so you don't need to worry about that, otherwise you would need to sort the numbers in ascending order. To find the median, we do [tex]\frac{n+1}{2}[/tex], where n is the amount of numbers. This gives us 4, so the median is at position 4, so the median is 69. The lower quartile is simply [tex]\frac{n+1}{4}[/tex], so 2, so the lower quartile is 54. The upper quartile is [tex]\frac{n+1}{2} X 3[/tex], so 6, so the upper quartile is 94.
