Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{30}\), when \(a_{1}=8000, r=-\frac{1}{2}\).
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 sequence is arithmetic or geometric. Then find the next two terms. \(2,6,10,14, \ldots\)
Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic or geometric. Then find the next two terms. \(6,3, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{3}{4}, \ldots\)
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=\frac{1}{5}, r=\frac{1}{2}\)
