Chapter 12 Sequences and Series
How do I use patterns to help me in my life?
Benchmark 9.2.2.4
Express the terms in a geometric sequence recursively and by giving an explicit
(closed form) formula, and express the partial sums of a geometric series
recursively.
Benchmark 9.2.2.5
Recognize and solve problems that can be modeled using finite geometric sequences
and series, such as home mortgage and other compound interest examples. Know
how to use spreadsheets and calculators to explore geometric sequences and series
in various contexts.
