    A Sequence is a set of things (usually numbers) that are in order. Geometric Sequences. In a Geometric Sequence each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant. Example: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, ... This sequence has a factor of 2 between each number.

  4. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

    A geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a mathematical sequence of non-zero numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed number called the common ratio. For example, the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ... is a geometric progression with a common ratio of 3.

    A sequence made by multiplying by the same value each time. Example: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, ... (each number is 2 times the number before it)

  6. Geometric sequence - Math.net

    www.math.net/geometric-sequence

    A geometric sequence is a type of sequence in which each subsequent term after the first term is determined by multiplying the previous term by a constant (not 1), which is referred to as the common ratio.

    A geometric sequence is a sequence where the ratio \(r\) between successive terms is constant. The general term of a geometric sequence can be written in terms of its first term \(a_{1}\), common ratio \(r\), and index \(n\) as follows: \(a_{n} = a_{1} r^{n−1}\).

  8. What are geometric sequences? - BBC Bitesize

    www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zntkw6f

    Number sequences are sets of numbers that follow a pattern or a rule. If the rule is to multiply or divide by a specific number each time, it is called a geometric sequence.

    Identify geometric sequences. Find a given term in a geometric sequence. Find the n n th term of a geometric sequence. Find the sum of a finite geometric sequence. Use geometric sequences to solve real-world applications.

  10. 12.4: Geometric Sequences and Series - Mathematics LibreTexts

    math.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Algebra/Intermediate...

    A sequence is called a geometric sequence if the ratio between consecutive terms is always the same. The ratio between consecutive terms in a geometric sequence is \(r\), the common ratio , where \(n\) is greater than or equal to two.

  11. Geometric Sequence -- from Wolfram MathWorld

    mathworld.wolfram.com/GeometricSequence.html

    A geometric sequence is a sequence {a_k}, k=0, 1, ..., such that each term is given by a multiple r of the previous one. Another equivalent definition is that a sequence is geometric iff it has a zero series bias. If the multiplier is r, then the kth term is given by a_k=ra_(k-1)=r^2a_(k-2)=a_0r^k. Taking a_0=1 gives the simple special case a_k ...
