A(n) = current term

a(n + 1) = next term

in a geometric sequence, the next term comes from a product of the current term and the common ratio.

the common ratio can be any value, let's say use r = ½.

if the current term is say hmmm 40, the next term is 40*½ , or 20, so indeed, the next term is smaller.

True.  If the common ratio r is between 0 and 1 (for example), then each successive term will be smaller than the preceding term.

Which statement explains the difference between a point and a vertex please fast
dlinn [17]

The difference between point and the vertx is that a vertex can be used to create different geometric shapes and a point is always part of the shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

Though Vertex and Point sound similar, they are different in many crude aspects. Vertex is defined as the meeting point of two sides, lines or any extended parts. The point, in turn, denotes the singular identity of a place.

Hence vertex can be used to draw any geometrical pattern. It can be done by extending or protruding the given body parts which would result in a new geometrical figure.

Points would constitute every part of that geometrical surface that we wish to identify.

d + 4d = 1.6
5d = 1.6
d = 0.32

This is an exact question in my math textbook. It should be correct.
