It is not possible to answer this question without information on whether the terms are of an arithmetic or geometric (or other) progression, and what the starting term is.

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 Sāˆž=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 is the sum of the first 15 terms of an arithmetic?

For an Arithmetic Progression, Sum = 15[a + 7d].{a = first term and d = common difference} For a Geometric Progression, Sum = a[1-r^15]/(r-1).{r = common ratio }.


What is the formula for a geometric sequence?

un = u0*rn for n = 1,2,3, ... where r is the constant multiple.


Is -2-6-18-54-162-468-1458 geometric or arithmetic?

It is neither. (-6) - (-2) = -4 (-18) - (-6) = -12 which is not the same as -4. Therefore it is not an arithmetic progression - which requires the difference between successive terms to be the same. Also -162/-54 = 3 -468/-162 = 2.88... recurring, and that is not the same as 3. Therefore it is not a geometric progression - which requires the ratio of terms to be the same.


The first and fourth terms of a geometric progression are 54 and 2 respectively Find the sum to infinity of the geometric progression?

t(1) = a = 54 t(4) = a*r^3 = 2 t(4)/t(1) = r^3 = 2/54 = 1/27 and so r = 1/3 Then sum to infinity = a/(1 - r) = 54/(1 - 1/3) = 54/(2/3) = 81.

Arithmetic progression?

This a progression that involves addition or subtraction of successive terms in a sequence.
