Question

Graph the six terms of a finite series where a1 = -3 and r = 1.5.

Answer 1

If there is an r, that stands for ratio, meaning the series is geeometric

Answer 2

I posted the answer choices underneath!

Answer 3

So then it would be the second answer choice correct? @campbell_st

Answer 4

is there any other information in the question...?

Answer 5

Yeah look at the post i did before I gotten a response! That shows the answer choices for this question but no there is not any more information that is included in this question! @campbell_st

Answer 6

ok... well I looked at the graphs... and non seem to fit my thoughts for the question...

my thinking is the last question... only because it contains the 1st point (1, -3)

Answer 7

oops last answer...

Answer 8

ok hey can you help me on one more question? @campbell_st

Answer 9

its similar to this question! @campbell_st

Answer 10

The question is asking you to plot the sum of a geometric sequence

the sequence is

-3, -4,5, -6.75, -10.125, -15.1875, -22.78125

ok, the points are (n , sum of the GP)

1st point (1, -3)

2nd Point (2, -3 + 4.5) = (2, -7.5)

3rd point (3, -7.5 + -6.75) = (3, -14.25)

if you continue the pattern you should get all the points and then be able to match the graph

Answer 11

the terms in the sequence are found by

\[-3 \times (1.5)^{n -1}\]

Answer 12

So it would be the 3rd answer choice! @campbell_st

Answer 13

of the 4 choices you posted at the beginning... my choice would be the last one...

it contains the points I've calculated.
