Verify whether the following sequence is G.P. If so, write tn:

1, – 5, 25, – 125, ...

योग

उत्तर

1, – 5, 25, – 125, ...
t1 = 1, t2 = – 5, t3 = 25, t4 = –125, …

Here, `"t"_2/"t"_1  = "t"_3/"t"_2 = "t"_4/"t"_3` = – 5

Since, the ratio of any two consecutive terms is a constant, the given sequence is a geometric progression.
Here, a = 1, r = – 5
tn = arn–1
∴  tn = (– 5)n–1
