In this lesson, you will begin to understand what makes a sequence a geometric sequence and how that connects to exponential functions. Using graphs, you will explore how growing and shrinking patterns represent geometric sequences.
When you finish this lesson, you will be able to:
- Find missing terms in a geometric sequence.
Here are the activities that will help you reach those goals:
- 4.15.1: What Are the Patterns?
-
4.15.2: Using Tables and Graphs to Represent Geometric Sequences
- 4.15.2: Self Check
- 4.15.2: Additional Resources
-
4.15.3: Complete the Sequence
- 4.15.3: Self Check
- 4.15.3: Additional Resources
- 4.15.4: Connecting the Common Ratio and the Term in a Sequence
After that, you’ll practice and review.
- 4.15.5: Practice
- 4.15.6: Lesson Summary
