This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by <span>33</span> gives the next term. In other words, <span><span><span>an</span>=<span>a1</span>⋅<span>r<span>n−1</span></span></span><span><span>an</span>=<span>a1</span>⋅<span>r<span>n-1</span></span></span></span><span>.</span>
