Answer:
a1 = 24
an = an-1 × 1/2, n >1
Step-by-step explanation:
a geometric sequence is a sequence where we multiply every previous term by a certain factor to create the next term.
so, we multiply 24 by something to get 12.
and then 12 by the same something to get 6.
and then 6 by the and something to get 3.
do you see the pattern ? hmmm ?
right, we always divide by 2 (or multiply by 1/2).
the starting value a1 = 24
so,
an = an-1 × 1/2, n>1
or
n>1
