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 \(a_{20}\), 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. \(1,5,9,13, \ldots\)
A professional baseball player signs a contract with a beginning salary of $$\$ 3,000,000$$ for the first year with an annual increase of \(4 \%\) per year beginning in the second year. That is, beginning in year 2 , the athlete's salary will be \(1.04\) times what it was in the previous year. What is the athlete's salary for year 7 of the contract? Round to the nearest dollar.
