jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

In the general formula \[\Large a_{n} = a(r)^{n-1}\] the variable 'a' is the first term and 'r' is the common ratio

OpenStudy (usman1995):

and common ratio is "i"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

common ratio is not i

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I in this question is N Moe. The sigma is just using a different variable. @jim_thompson5910 has the correct formula.
