The 99th term would be a times r to the 98th power ,where

a is the first term and r is the common ratio of the terms.

How do you find the 99th term in a sequence?

The formula used to find the 99th term in a sequence is a^n = a^1 + (n-1)d. a^1 is the first term, n is the term number we wish to find, and d is the common difference. In order to find d, the pattern in the sequence must be determined. If the sequence begins 1,4,7,10..., then d=3 because there is a difference of 3 between each number. d can be quite simple or more complicated as it can be a function or formula in of itself. However, in the example, a^1=1, n=99, and d=3. The formula then reads a^99 = 1 + (99-1)3. Therefore, a^99 = 295.

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.


How do you find the 99th number in the sequence 5 8 11 14 17?

The sequence seems to be calculated by f(n) = 3n + 2.3(1) + 2 = 5, 3(2) + 2 = 8, 3(3) + 2 = 11, and so on.Therefore, the 99th term would be 3(99) + 2 = 299


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.


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.
