1.6A: Geometric Infinite Series Definitions Infinite Geometric Series has unlimited terms Limit is where the numbers of an infinite sequence or series approaches as the term number increases Convergent series is where absolute value of ratio is less than 1; it DOES have an infinite sum Divergent series is where absolute value of ratio is more than 1; it DOES NOT have an infinite sum Formula: 𝐒= 𝒂 𝟏 𝟏−𝒓 12/2/2018 10:27 PM 1.6A: Geometric Infinite Series
Convergent vs Divergent Formula: 𝐒= 𝒂 𝟏 𝟏−𝒓 Determine whether these series is either convergent or divergent. Find the ratio to identify whether it is convergent or divergent. Ratio: 16/32 = 1/2 Ratio: 4/2 = 2 Divergent Convergent 12/2/2018 10:27 PM 1.6A: Geometric Infinite Series
