PART A
The geometric sequence is defined by the equation
To find the first three terms, we put n=1,2,3
When n=1,
When n=2,
When n=3
The first three terms are,
PART B
The common ratio can be found using any two consecutive terms.
The common ratio is given by,
PART C
To find
We substitute n=11 into the equation of the geometric sequence.
This implies that,

( + 4)(
- 4)
To solve this question you must FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) like so
First:
(x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 4)
x^2 * x^2
x^4
Outside:
(x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 4)
x^2 * -4
-4x^2
Inside:
(x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 4)
4 * x^2
4x^2
Last:
(x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 4)
4 * -4
-16
Now combine all the products of the FOIL together like so...
x^4 - 4x^2 +4x^2 - 16
Combine like terms:
x^4 - 4x^2 +4x^2 - 16
- 4x^2 +4x^2 = 0
x^4 - 16 <<<This is your answer
