Question :
Find the formula for the 19th term of the sequence in which a1 = 9 and the common ratio is 6.
Answer :
From the question we know that :
n = 19th
a₁ = 9
r = 6
General Formulas To find any term of a geometric sequence:

a_(n)=a_(1) \cdot r^((n-1))

The formula for the 19th term of the sequence :

a_(19)=9 \cdot 6^((19-1))


a_(19)=9 \cdot 6^(18)
