Find the sum `(2 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^4 + ............+ 2^10)`


Options:
A .  2016
B .  2046
C .  2086
D .  2116
Answer: Option B

This is a G.P. in which   a = 2 , r = `2^2/2 = 4/2 = 2.`

Required sum = `(a(r^n - 1))/((r - 1)) `

                        = `(2(2^10 - 1))/((2 - 12))`

                        = (2 x 1023) = 2046.
