Exercise 24 Page 310

The common ratio of a geometric sequence is the ratio between any two consecutive terms.

Next Three Terms: 9, 27/2, 81/4
Graph:

Practice makes perfect

The common ratio of a geometric sequence is the ratio between any two consecutive terms.

The common ratio of our sequence is 32. To obtain the next three terms, we multiply by 32.

To plot these terms, we will let the horizontal axis represent the position of the term within the sequence — this is the domain — and the vertical axis will represent the value of the terms — the range.
