Question

Write the first six terms of the geometric sequence with the first term a 1 equals negative one fourth a1=− 1 4 and common ratio r equals one fourth . r= 1 4 . a 1 equals negative one fourth a1=− 1 4 ​, a 2 equals a2= nothing ​(Type an integer or a fraction. Simplify your​ answer.)

Answer 1

-1/4, -1/16, -1/64, -1/256, - 1/1024, -1/4096.

Explanation:

The first 6 terms are a1, a1 r, a1r^2, a2r^3...... a1r^5.

= -1/4, -1/4 * 1/4 , - 1/4* (1/4)^2, -1/4*(1/4)^3...

= -1/4, -1/16, -1/64, -1/256, - 1/1024, -1/4096.
