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. \(0.0004,-0.004,0.04,-0.4, \ldots\)
Company A pays $$\$ 24,000$$ yearly with raises of $$\$ 1600$$ per year. Company B pays $$\$ 28,000$$ yearly with raises of $$\$ 1000$$ per year. Which company will pay more in year 10 ? How much more?
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. If a sequence is geometric, we can write as many terms as we want by repeatedly multiplying by the common ratio.
Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic or geometric. Then find the next two terms. \(7,-7,-21,-35, \ldots\)
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. \(1.5,-3,6,-12, \ldots\)
