Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. A sequence that is not arithmetic must be geometric.
Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). \(a_{1}=10, r=-4\)
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.
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 geometric sequence. Then use the formula for \(a_{n}\) to find \(a_{7}\), the seventh term of the sequence. \(1.5,-3,6,-12, \ldots\)
