Consider the following sequence 24,
assuming the sequence is geometric,
write the next three terms.
24, 18,
b.
write an explicit equation
representing the sequence above.

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is geometric then the common ratio (r) is

r = = = 0.75

To find the next term in the sequence, multiply the previous term by r

The next 3 terms are

18 × 0.75 = 13.5

13.5 × 0.75 = 10.125

10.125 × 0.75 = 7.59375

The n th term equation of a geometric sequence is

= a

where a is the first term, that is a = 24, hence

= 24

could you reply to this with the question so i can ?

answer: all of the odd numbers were opened

the first person was the one that was opening all of the lockers. since one is odd, this causes all of the odd number lockers to be opened in the end.
