Write a rule given a term and common ratio where a_4=12 and r=2.
Thanks!
Thanks!
-
a_n = a_1 r^(n-1)
a_4 = a_1(2)^3
12 = a_1(8)
12/8 = a_1
a_1 = 1.5
Now write the rule for the nth term:
a_n = 1.5(2)^(n-1)
:)
a_4 = a_1(2)^3
12 = a_1(8)
12/8 = a_1
a_1 = 1.5
Now write the rule for the nth term:
a_n = 1.5(2)^(n-1)
