@Shadowys

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well the 1st term is 3 and the common ratio is 5 so \[T_{n} = ar^{n -1}\] is the formula for a term in a geometric series... substitute a = 3 and r = 5 into the formula to find the formula.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would be A than (:

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well you have all the information just substitute and trust your algebra skills.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Shadowys is it A or B
