Is geometric sequence a sequence in which each successive terms of the sequence are in equal ratio?
Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.
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 the sixth term of a geometric sequence when the first term is 1 and the common ratio is -4?
-1,024
What is the 12th term of a geometric sequence in which the common ratio is 2 and the first term is 12?
36
If a geometric sequence has a common ratio of 4 and if each term of the sequence is multiplied by 3what is the common ratio of the resulting sequence?
the answer is 4
What is the fifth term of the geometric sequence?
It is a*r^4 where a is the first term and r is the common ratio (the ratio between a term and the one before it).
Is geometric sequence a sequence in which each successive terms of the sequence are in equal ratio?
Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.
In the geometric sequence 4,12,36,....which term is 8748?
2946
Can you explain a pattern in which 14 is the fifth term in a sequence of ten numbers?
It is not possible to explain because you have not specified the nature of the sequence. A sequence can be an arithmetic, or geometric progression, increasing or decreasing. Or it can be a polynomial or power progression, again increasing or decreasing. Or it can be a sequence of random numbers.
When In a geometric sequence the term an plus 1 can be smaller than the term a?
Yes, it can.
What is the next term in the geometric sequence 4-1236?
1240
How do you determine if a sequence is geometric?
A sequence is geometric if each term is found by mutiplying the previous term by a certain number (known as the common ratio). 2,4,8,16, --> here the common ratio is 2.

Determine if the sequence below is arithmetic or geometric and determine the common difference/ ratio in simplest form 300,30,3?
This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 10.
What is the difference between an arithmetic sequence and a geometric sequence?
In an arithmetic sequence the same number (positive or negative) is added to each term to get to the next term.In a geometric sequence the same number (positive or negative) is multiplied into each term to get to the next term.A geometric sequence uses multiplicative and divisive formulas while an arithmetic uses additive and subtractive formulas.
Which term describes a function in which the values form a geometric sequence?
1
