Exercise 17 Page 430

What is the first term of the sequence? What is the common ratio? Use these values in the explicit equation for geometric sequences.

Rule:
Value of :

Practice makes perfect
Explicit equations for geometric sequences follow a specific format.
In this form, is the first term, is the common ratio, and is the term in the sequence. For this exercise, the first term is Let's observe the other terms to determine the common ratio
