Question 744441: Hello, this isn't an arithmetic sequence question, but a geometric one. I need to find the rate of the following geometric sequence,
9 (nine), 3√3 (three square root of 3),3(three),... and the next three terms of the sequence. How can I do it?

9+-3sqrt%283%29-3
r= 3sqrt%283%29%2F9=>1%2Fsqrt%283%29%29

r%3C1

tn=+ar%5E%28n-1%29
a=9, r= sqrt(1/3)
t4=9%2A%281%2Fsqrt%283%29%29%5E%284-1%29

t4=9%2A%281%2Fsqrt%283%29%29%5E%283%29
t4=+9%2A%281%2F3sqrt%283%29%29
t4=sqrt%283%29
you find the 5th and 6th in the same way
