It is nonequivalent. Figure it out this way. Think about what number has to be multiplied by both the numerator and the denominator of to get to
. It has to be the samee number for the one expression to be equivalent to the other. To get from 5x to x^3, we have to multiply by 1/5x^2. When we do that we get x^3. Good. Now we have to multiply the denominator by the same thing, 1/5x^2.
. As you can see, they are not equivalent.
We have been given that a geometric sequence's 1st term is equal to 1 and the common ratio is 6. We are asked to find the domain for n.
We know that a geometric sequence is in form , where,
= nth term of sequence,
= 1st term of sequence,
r = Common ratio,
n = Number of terms in a sequence.
Upon substituting our given values in geometric sequence formula, we will get:
Our sequence is defined for all integers such that n is greater than or equal to 1.
Therefore, domain for n is all integers, where .
