  8. Key Terms • A geometric sequence is a list of numbers that have a COMMON RATIO (r) meaning you DIVIDED by the same number. • To find r = DIVIDE THE SECOND NUMBER TO THE FIRST NUMBER • Series – The TOTALof a sequence. • Sigma Notation: . If you do not recognize the pattern, you could plug in ALL the numbers from the bottom (first) to the top (last), evaluate each one, then add them up. • Geometric Mean is the central number in a geometric progression 1.6: Geometric Series

  9. 5 ∑ 5(2)n–1 n =1 5 5 + 10 + 20 + 40 + 80 = ∑ 5(2)n n = 1 Sigma Notation Is read as: “the sum from n equals 1 to 5 of 5 times 2 to the n power.” upper limit of summation lower limit of summation index of summation 1.6: Geometric Series
