The sum to three terms of geometric series is 9 and its sum to infinity is 8. What could you deduce about the common ratio. Why. Find the first term and common ratio?
The geometric sequence with three terms with a sum of nine and the sum to infinity of 8 is -9,-18, and 36. The first term is -9 and the common ratio is -2.
What does Geometric Series represent?
A geometric series represents the partial sums of a geometric sequence. The nth term in a geometric series with first term a and common ratio r is:T(n) = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
What is the 7th term in the geometric sequence whose first term is 5 and the common ratio is -2?
Find the 7th term of the geometric sequence whose common ratio is 1/2 and whose first turn is 5
What is the sixth term of a geometric sequence when the first term is 7 and the common ratio is 1.1?

The fourth term of a geometric sequence is -64 the product of the first and third term is 16?
the series can be 1,-4,16,-64
The sum to three terms of geometric series is 9 and its sum to infinity is 8. What could you deduce about the common ratio. Why. Find the first term and common ratio?
The geometric sequence with three terms with a sum of nine and the sum to infinity of 8 is -9,-18, and 36. The first term is -9 and the common ratio is -2.
What does summation of infinite series?
The summation of a geometric series to infinity is equal to a/1-rwhere a is equal to the first term and r is equal to the common difference between the terms.
A geometric progression has a common ratio -1/2 and the sum of its first 3 terms is 18. Find the sum to infinity?
The sum to infinity of a geometric series is given by the formula Sā=a1/(1-r), where a1 is the first term in the series and r is found by dividing any term by the term immediately before it.
What does Geometric Series represent?
A geometric series represents the partial sums of a geometric sequence. The nth term in a geometric series with first term a and common ratio r is:T(n) = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
What does an equal in geometric series?
Geometric series may be defined in terms of the common ratio, r, and either the zeroth term, a(0), or the first term, a(1).Accordingly,a(n) = a(0) * r^n ora(n) = a(1) * r^(n-1)
What is the difference between an arithmetic series and a geometric series?
An arithmetic series is the sequence of partial sums of an arithmetic sequence. That is, if A = {a, a+d, a+2d, ..., a+(n-1)d, ... } then the terms of the arithmetic series, S(n), are the sums of the first n terms and S(n) = n/2*[2a + (n-1)d]. Arithmetic series can never converge.A geometric series is the sequence of partial sums of a geometric sequence. That is, if G = {a, ar, ar^2, ..., ar^(n-1), ... } then the terms of the geometric series, T(n), are the sums of the first n terms and T(n) = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r). If |r| < 1 then T(n) tends to 1/(1 - r) as n tends to infinity.
How do you find the first term of a geometric series?
