Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{6}\), when \(a_{1}=18, r=-\frac{1}{3}\).
Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic or geometric. Then find the next two terms. \(15,30,60,120, \ldots\)
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=-4, r=-2\)
What is the common difference in an arithmetic sequence?
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.
