You start with the number 4, then multiply with the "common ratio" to get the next term. That, in turn, is multiplied by the common ratio to get the next term, etc.

In a Geometric Sequence each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a common ratio except the first term and the general rule is ar^(n-1) whereas a is the first term, r is the common ratio and (n-1) is term number minus 1
The ratio can be found by dividing any (except the first) number by the one before it.
A geometric sequence is a sequence of a number in which the ratio of any number (other than the first) to its predecessor (the one before) is a constant.if t(k) is the kth term in the sequence thent(1), the seed, is given and then,t(n) = r*t(n-1) where r is the common ratio.

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)
This is a geometric sequence of the form a, ar, ar^2, ar^3, ... where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.In our case, the first term a = 2, and the common ratio r = 5.The nth term of such a sequence isan = a r^(n -1).
nth term Tn = arn-1 a = first term r = common factor

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).
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.
The ball does not return to its initial height after bouncing. So the height it reaches after the first bounce will be a fraction of the initial height, etc. This is a geometric sequence with common ratio 5/8.
