Graph the first six terms of a finite series where a1=6 and r=2. You may use graphing technology

Sagot :

A finite series can be an arithmetic series or a geometric series

How to plot the graph

The given parameters are:

a1 = 6

r = 2

The above represents a geometric series

The nth term of a geometric series is calculated as:

[tex]a_n = a_1 * r^{n-1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]a_2 = 6 * 2^1 = 12[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = 6 * 2^2 = 24[/tex]

[tex]a_4 = 6 * 2^3 = 48[/tex]

[tex]a_5 = 6 * 2^4 = 96[/tex]

[tex]a_6 = 6 * 2^5 = 192[/tex]

So, we have the following ordered pairs

(x,y) = (1,6) (2,12) (3,24) (4,48) (5,96) (6,192)
