In a GP , IF an =5(0.2)n-1 express value of r in P/Q form is________

Answer»

Answer:

If the first TERM of the GP is a and common ratio

If the first term of the GP is a and common ratio Then,

If the first term of the GP is a and common ratio Then,The nth term of GP is

If the first term of the GP is a and common ratio Then,The nth term of GP isa_n=ar^{n-1}a n

=ar n−1

=ar n−1

=ar n−1 GIVEN

=ar n−1 Givena_n=5(0.2)^{n-1}a n

=5(0.2) n−1

=5(0.2) n−1

=5(0.2) n−1 COMPARING this to the general term, we GET

=5(0.2) n−1 Comparing this to the general term, we geta=5a=5

=5(0.2) n−1 Comparing this to the general term, we geta=5a=5r=0.2r=0.2

=5(0.2) n−1 Comparing this to the general term, we geta=5a=5r=0.2r=0.2or, R=\frac{1}{5}r= 51

=5(0.2) n−1 Comparing this to the general term, we geta=5a=5r=0.2r=0.2or, r=\frac{1}{5}r= 51

Therefore, r in p/q form is 1/5

, r in p/q form is 1/5Hope it's helpful☺️
