Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image you uploaded has dimensions of 216x122 pixels, and it contains a geometric sequence problem. I will extract and solve the sequences listed in the image.
The question is:
"Determine the common ratio and the missing terms of the given geometric sequence."
I will now begin solving each sequence.
1. Sequence: 4, 20, 15, ___
To find the common ratio (r):
- Solve for the missing terms.
Let me solve each of these sequences step by step.For the first sequence :
- The ratio between the first and second terms is .
- The ratio between the second and third terms is .
This suggests that the sequence might involve alternating different ratios. Let's try to find the missing fourth term using :
[ a_4 = 15 \times 0
