Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic or geometric. Then find the next two terms. \(6,3, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{3}{4}, \ldots\)
Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{8}\), when \(a_{1}=40,000, r=0.1\).
Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{4}\), when \(a_{1}=9, r=-\frac{1}{3}\).
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. The sequence \(1,4,8,13,19,26, \ldots\) is an arithmetic sequence.
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=-8, r=-5\)
