The common ratio (r) of this geometric sequence is found by dividing any term by its preceding term, such as:
r = a2/a1 = 6/10 = 0.6
We can use this common ratio to find any term in the sequence using the recursive formula:
a(n) = r * a(n-1)
where a(1) is the first term in the sequence, a(n) is the nth term, and a(n-1) is the (n-1)th term
Using this formula, we can find any term in the sequence. For example:
a(2) = r * a(1) = 0.6 * 10 = 6
a(3) = r * a(2) = 0.6 * 6 = 3.6
a(4) = r * a(3) = 0.6 * 3.6 = 2.16
and so on
Therefore, the complete recursive formula for this geometric sequence is:
a(n) = 0.6 * a(n-1), where a(1) = 10 and a(n) = a(n-1) for all n > 1
