Video Transcript

If the first term is two and the common ratio was five, Then the 10th term would be found Using the general formula. The first term times the common ratio to the N -1 would be 10 -1 And so this would be two times 5 to the night, and you may need a calculator for this, two times five to the ninth Is 3,906,250.
