⇒ The general formula of a geometric sequence is
ar^(n-1) where a is the first term and r is the common ratio, now in the given a which is 3 and the common ratio r which is 3.

to get the 10th term we use the same general formula


a_(n) =ar^(n-1)

where
T_(n) is the nth term that is then output and n is the place of the nth term in the general sequence.

For the 10th term we substitute 10 in the place of n and simplify to find the value of the output.


a_(10) =ar^((10-1)) \\a_(10) =ar^(9) \\

Now since we know which formula to use to get the 10th term we can substitute the known values of the variables to get the output .


a_(10) =(3)(3)^(9) \\a_(10) =59049

goodluck
