A geometric sequence is a list of terms that have a common ratio between them. For example, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, .... has a ratio of 2. For example, 100, 50, 25, 12.5, ... has a ratio of
Let's say you are given the following list of terms and asked to write the "equation" for it:
What is the first term? 8
What is the ratio?
So,
