Is the Fibonacci sequence a geometric sequence?
No. Although the ratios of the terms in the Fibonacci sequence do approach a constant, phi, in order for the Fibonacci sequence to be a geometric sequence the ratio of ALL of the terms has to be a constant, not just approaching one. A simple counterexample to show that this is not true is to notice that 1/1 is not equal to 2/1, nor is 3/2, 5/3, 8/5...
What is the common ratio between the terms in this geometric sequence 5 20 80 320 1280?
1 to 4
What does geometric sequence?
You mean what IS a geometric sequence? It's when the ratio of the terms is constant, meaning: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16... The ratio of one term to the term directly following it is always 1:2, or .5. So like, instead of an arithmetic sequence, where you're adding a specific amount each time, in a geometric sequence, you're multiplying by that term.
What is mathematical sequence?
Sequences are a group of numbers that follow a certain pattern. There are two kinds of sequences, the arithematic sequence and geometric sequence. Arithematic sequence follows through addition (and subtraction). Geometric sequence follows throug multiplication (and division). Arithematic Sequence Example : 1, 6, 11, 16, 21 The pattern follows an addition of 5. Geometric Sequence Example : 1, 3, 9, 27, 81 The pattern follows a multiplication of 3
What is the value of the fourth term in a geometric sequence for which a1 10 and r .5?
1.25 Apex
Is the sequence 2 3 5 8 12 arithmetic or geometric?
Well, honey, neither. That sequence is a hot mess. In an arithmetic sequence, you add the same number each time, and in a geometric sequence, you multiply by the same number each time. This sequence is just doing its own thing, so it's neither arithmetic nor geometric.
What is the first 5 terms of the geometric sequence a14r3?
They are 14, 42, 126, 378 and 1134.

What is infinite geometric sequence?
An example of an infinite geometric sequence is 3, 5, 7, 9, ..., the three dots represent that the number goes on forever.
Is 155-5-15-25-35 geometric sequence?
No, it is not.

It is 0.2
