Answer:

The formula to find the nth term of the given sequence is 54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for nth term of an geometric progression is :

a_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n})}{r}

In this example, we have a_{1} = 36 (the first term in the sequence) and

r = \frac{2}{3} (the rate in which the sequence is changing).

Knowing what the values for r and a_{1} are, now we can solve.

a_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n})}{r} = \frac{36 (\frac{2}{3} ^{n}) }{\frac{2}{3} } = 54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

Therefore, the formula to find the nth term of the given sequence is

54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}
