The sequence:
Concept Used:
In mathematics, a geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.
For example, the sequence
The ratio of 2nd term and first term is called the common ratio.
Calculation:
The sequence:
First term:
The common ratios are equal. So, it is a geometric sequence.
Thus, yes, it is a geometric sequence.
