Question 1178527



(b) Find the indicated term of the geometric sequence algebraically.
a13=

(a) Find the indicated term of the geometric sequence using the table feature of a graphing utility. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)


{{{a[1] = 2}}} 
{{{r = sqrt(3)}}}

nth term:

{{{a[n] = 2*(sqrt(3))^(n-1)}}}

(b) Find the indicated term of the geometric sequence algebraically.

{{{a[13] = 2*(sqrt(3))^(13-1)}}} 
{{{a[13] = 2*(sqrt(3))^12}}} 
{{{a[13] = 2*729}}}
{{{a[13] = 1458}}}
