In a geometric sequence, each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant ratio ( r ). The ( n )-th term can be expressed as ( a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{(n-1)} ), where ( a_1 ) is the first term. For the sum of the first ( n ) terms of a geometric series, the formula is ( S_n = a_1 \frac{1 - r^n}{1 - r} ) for ( r \neq 1 ), while for an infinite geometric series, if ( |r| < 1 ), the sum is ( S = \frac{a_1}{1 - r} ).
What else can I help you with?
How do you find the sum of a series of numbers?
There is no simple answer. There are simple formulae for simple sequences such as arithmetic or geometric progressions; there are less simple solutions arising from Taylor or Maclaurin series. But for the majority of sequences there are no solutions.
What are some of the difficulties students have in learning sequence and series in mathematics?
Students often struggle with understanding the foundational concepts of sequences and series, such as distinguishing between finite and infinite sequences. They may also find it challenging to grasp the notation and formulas associated with different types of sequences, like arithmetic and geometric series. Additionally, applying these concepts to solve problems can be difficult, particularly when it involves summation techniques or recognizing patterns. Lastly, a lack of practice with these topics can lead to difficulty in retaining the information and applying it effectively.
How do arithmetic and geometric sequences compare to continuous functions?
an arithmetic sequeunce does not have the sum to infinty, and a geometric sequence has.
How are arithmetic and geometric sequences similar?
Arithmetic and geometric sequences are similar in that both are ordered lists of numbers defined by a specific rule. In an arithmetic sequence, each term is generated by adding a constant difference to the previous term, while in a geometric sequence, each term is produced by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor. Both sequences can be described using formulas and have applications in various mathematical contexts. Additionally, they both exhibit predictable patterns, making them useful for modeling real-world situations.

What are some examples of geometric?
There aren't any. Geometric is an adjective and you need a noun to go with it before it is possible to consider answering the question. There are geometric sequences, geometric means, geometric theories, geometric shapes. I cannot guess what your question is about.
Can geometric sequences be division too?
yes a geometic sequence can be multiplication or division
What is a series?
a sequential series of geometric shapes
