dude:

Geometric sequences are written as \(a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\) \(a_1\) = first term r = rate n = n'th term (Position of the "n" number in the sequence) We need to find the rate first (You can divide the second term over the first. You can recheck whether its true by diving the third term over the second)

darkknight:

\[a _{n} =a _{1}+d(n-1)\] is the formula for arithmetic sequence where \[n\]= nth term \[a _{1}\] = first term \[d\] = common ratio you need to figure the value of the nth term, which is 10

darkknight:

And then after that, the sum of the first nterms of an arithmetic sequence is \[\sum=n((a_{1}+a _{n})/2)\]

darkknight:

oops that was supposed to be the sum, for clarification

darkknight:

np

darkknight:

sum =\[\sum\] So you just have tofind that, first find \[a _{n}\]

nettym:

ty :)
