A sequence is a list of numbers in a particular order. Each number in a sequence is called a term. A geometric sequence is when each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant (called the common ratio).
a n = nth term a 1 = first term r = common ratio n is any positive integer
Find the indicated term of the geometric sequence with
Write an equation for the nth term of the geometric sequence 64, 16, 4, …
Write an equation for the nth term of the geometric sequence 4, -12, 36, …
The missing term(s) between two non- successive terms of a geometric sequence are called geometric means.
