Geometric Sequences EXPLAINED (Find the nth Term)

During this video lesson students will make connections between geometric sequences and exponential equations. Students will understand that a geometric sequence has a common ratio, how to find the common ratio and use it to extend a given sequence. Students will understand a graph of a geometric sequence. Student will be able to construct an equation to represent a geometric sequence and use it to find a specific term of the sequence. #geometricsequence #commonratio #formulaforageometricsequence 00:00 - Introduction 00:36 - Vocabulary 01:44 - Finding the Common Ratio 02:28 - Student Practice #1 04:08 - Extending a Geometric Sequence 05:17 - Graphing a Geometric Sequence 06:58 - Writing an Equation for a Geometric Sequence 08:00 - Find the nth term of a Geometric Sequence 09:26 - Student Practice #2 HSF-IF.A.3 Recognize that sequences are functions.
