1 Algebra 3 7.3 Geometric Sequences Objectives of this Section Determine if a Sequence Is Geometric Find a Formula for a Geometric Sequence Find the Sum of a Geometric Sequence Solve Annuity Problems

2 A sequence is geometric when the ratio of successive terms is always the same nonzero number. A geometric sequence is defined recursively as where r is called the common ratio of the sequence.

3 Determine if the following sequence is geometric 3, 15, 75, 375,... The sequence is geometric with a common ratio of 5.
