This information will be modeled using the formula
thus we shall have:
Sn=ar^n
where:
a=first term
r=common ratio
from the information:
a=30 ft
r=60/100=3/5=0.6
therefore the formula will be
Sn=30(0.6)^n
where n is the number of terms:
thus when n=5 th sum will be:
S5=30(0.6)^5
S5=30(0.6)^5
S5=2.33 ft
Answer: 2.33 ft
