I got m 7/3 I think that's the answer
Given:
The explicit function is:
To find:
and first 5 terms.
Solution:
The explicit formula a geometric sequence is:
...(i)
Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.
We have,
...(ii)
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get
And,
For ,
For ,
Similarly, substituting , we get
Therefore, and the first five terms are .
Answer:
one because x represent 1
