Calculate the explicit formula term number 10 Sum of the first 10 terms for: 2,4,8,16,32
The explicit formula for a geometric series is an = a1r(n - 1) r represents the common ratio between each term below:
r =
an
an - 1
Looking at all the terms, we see the common ratio (r) is 2, and we have a1 = 2 We simplify a1 to just a ar = 2 x 2 = Therefore, our explicit formula is an = (2)2(n - 1)
Calculate Terms (6 - 10)
Plug in n = 10 and r = 2
