Then divide that number by the past value. R 7 1 0 0 0. In general a geometric sequence is one of the form where P1 cP0 P2 cP1 P3 cP2 Pn cPn-1 and c is a constant called the common ratio.
To describe these numbers we often use orders of magnitude.
So this is the first case of the type of information we can be given. N t A e-kt where A and k are positive real-valued constants. Growth rate of 7. You will notice that in these new growth and decay functions the b value growth factor has been replaced either by 1 r or by 1 - r.
