प्रश्न

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

2, 6, 18, 54, …

बेरीज

उत्तर

2, 6, 18, 54, …

t1 = 2, t2 = 6, t3 = 18, t4 = 54, …

Here, `"t"_2/"t"_1 = "t"_3/"t"_2 = "t"_4/"t"_3` = 3

∵ the ratio of any two consecutive terms is a constant, hence the given sequence is a Geometric progression.

Here, a = 2, r = 3

tn = arn–1

∴ tn = 2(3n–1)
