Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. There's no end to the number of geometric sequences that I can generate whose first term is 5 if I pick nonzero numbers \(r\) and multiply 5 by each value of \(r\) repeatedly.
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=3000, r=-1\)
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=2000, r=-1\)
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=-4, r=-2\)
Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{8}\), when \(a_{1}=6, r=\frac{1}{2}\).
