Write a formula for the general term (the nth term) of each geometric sequence. Then use the formula for \(a_{n}\) to find \(a_{7}\), the seventh term of the sequence. \(1.5,-3,6,-12, \ldots\)
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=20, r=-4\)
Company A pays $$\$ 24,000$$ yearly with raises of $$\$ 1600$$ per year. Company B pays $$\$ 28,000$$ yearly with raises of $$\$ 1000$$ per year. Which company will pay more in year 10 ? How much more?
For the first 30 days of a flu outbreak, the number of students on your campus who become ill is increasing. Which is worse: The number of students with the flu is increasing arithmetically or is increasing geometrically? Explain your answer.
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. A sequence that is not arithmetic must be geometric.
