Outcomes

3.3.2.1

use recursion to generate a geometric sequence

3.3.2.2

display the terms of a geometric sequence in both tabular and graphical form and demonstrate that geometric sequences can be used to model exponential growth and decay in discrete situations

3.3.2.3

use the rule for the π‘›π‘‘β„Ž term using 𝑑_𝑛 = π‘Žr^(π‘›βˆ’1) where 𝑑_𝑛 represents the 𝑛th term of the sequence, π‘Ž=first term, 𝑛=term number and π‘Ÿ=common ratio of a particular geometric sequence from the pattern of the terms in the sequence, and use this rule to make predictions
