Given the geometric sequence 512 over 243 comma negative 128 over 81 comma 32 comma 27 comma and continuing comma what is a6?.

Sagot :

The 6th term of the geometric sequence is -1/2.

Here we have to find the a6the term of the geometric sequence.

Data given:

The series = 512/243, -128/81, 32/27.....

The formula to find the nth term of the geometric sequence:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a[tex]r^{n-1}[/tex]

where [tex]a_{n}[/tex] = nth term of the sequence

a = first term of the sequence

r = common ratio

common ratio(r) = -128/ 81 ÷ 512/ 243

                       = -128/81 × 243/512

                       = -3/4

Now we have to find the 6th term of the series.

[tex]a_{6}[/tex] = 512/ 243 (-3/4[tex])^{6-1}[/tex]

   = 512/243 (-3/4[tex])^{5}[/tex]

  = 512/243 × 243/1024

  = -512/1024

  = -1/2

Therefore the 6th term is -1/2.
