REVIEW GEOMETRIC MEANS
Geometric mean - is any term between two terms of a geometric
sequence.
9, 27, 81, 243, 729, 2187
geometric means
geometric sequence
Formula:
m= aₙ - a₁
Examples
1.) 5, 35, 245 2.) 8, 16, 32 3.) -6, 3, -3/2
m= aₙ - a₁ m= aₙ - a₁ m= aₙ - a₁
m= 245·5 m= 32·8 m= -3/2·-6
m= 1,225 m= 256 m= 9
m = ± 35 m = ± 16 m= ±3
5, 35, 245 8, 16, 32 6, 3, -3/2
5, -35, 245 8, -16, 32 6, -3, -3/2

REVIEW GEOMETRIC SEQUENCE
Geometric sequence - an ordered set of numbers that progresses
by multiplying or dividing each term by a common ratio.
9, 27, 81, 243, 729, 2187
geometric means
geometric sequence
Formula:
Sₙ = a₁ (1 - rⁿ)
1-r
Term Definitions:
Sₙ → sum
a₁ → first term
r → ratio (difference between two means
n → number of terms
