The geometric sequence is
Explanation:
Given that the first term of the geometric sequence is 15
The fifth term of the sequence is
We need to find the 2nd, 3rd and 4th term of the geometric sequence.
To find these terms, we need to know the common difference.
The common difference can be determined using the formula,
where and
For , we have,
Simplifying, we have,
Thus, the common difference is
Now, we shall find the 2nd, 3rd and 4th terms by substituting in the formula
For
Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is 9
For , we have,
Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is
For , we have,
Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is
Therefore, the geometric sequence is
