Find the common ratio of the sequence. –172, –86, –43, –21.5, . . .

seropon [69]

If you divide each number by the previous one, you get:

-86 / -172 = 1/2
-43 / -86 = 1/2
-21.5 / -43 = 1/2

The common ratio is 1/2 = 0.5

The sequence an = one third(3)n − 1 is graphed below: coordinate plane showing the points 2, 1; 3, 3; and 4, 9 Find the average

Maru [420]

The given sequence is:

$a(n)= \frac{1}{3} (3)^{n-1}$

a(2)=1
a(3)=3
a(4)=9

We are to find the average rate of change between n=3 and n=4 for the given function.

Average rate of change = $\frac{a(4)-a(3)}{4-3} = \frac{9-3}{1}=6$

So the average rate of change for the given function from n = 3 to n = 4 is 6
