Find an explicit formula for the geometric sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ....

Mathematics

Eddi Din [679]2 years ago

The geometric sequence can be represented explicitly or as recursions

The explicit formula of the geometric sequence is b(n) = 2 * 3^(n-1)

<h3>How to determine the explicit formula?</h3>

The sequence is given as:

2, 6, 18, 54, ....

Start by calculating the common ratio (r)

r = b2/b1

This gives

r = 6/2

Evaluate the quotient

r = 3

A geometric sequence is represented as:

b(n) = b1 * r^(n-1)

This gives

b(n) = 2 * 3^(n-1)

Hence, the explicit formula of the geometric sequence is b(n) = 2 * 3^(n-1)

patriot [66]

Answer:

The answer is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population after x hours is 2x, then after 12 hours, we'll substitute x = 12 into the function.

The population becomes 2 x 12 = 24
