1) What is a possible expression for the series
\n" ); document.write( "-6 -12 -24 -48 -96 -192
That's a geometric series with a1=-6 and common ratio =r=2\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "
2) What is a possible expression for the series
\n" ); document.write( "-7 +12 -17 +22 -27
\r\n" );
document.write( "That would be an arithmetic series with a1=-7 and common \r\n" );
document.write( "difference = d = 5 if it weren't for the alternating signs.  So we\r\n" );
document.write( "use the arithmetic series formula and multiply by the sign changing\r\n" );
document.write( "factor (-1)n\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
