Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{20}\), when \(a_{1}=2, r=2\).
Write a formula for the general term (the nth term) of each arithmetic sequence. Then use the formula for \(a_{n}\) to find \(a_{20}\), the 20 th term of the sequence. \(1,5,9,13, \ldots\)
Enough curiosities involving the Fibonacci sequence exist to warrant a flourishing Fibonacci Association. It publishes a quarterly journal. Do some research on the Fibonacci sequence by consulting the research department of your library or the Internet, and find one property that interests you. After doing this research, get together with your group to share these intriguing properties.
Write a formula for the general term (the nth term) of each arithmetic sequence. Then use the formula for \(a_{n}\) to find \(a_{20}\), the 20 th term of the sequence. \(a_{1}=9, d=2\)
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. The sequence for the number of seats per row in our movie theater as the rows move toward the back is arithmetic with \(d=1\) so people don't block the view of those in the row behind them.
