  1. Geometric Series section 12.3 12.2 - Geometric Series

  2. DEFINITIONS Geometric Seriesis indicated sum of the terms of a geometric sequence Ratiois a quantity that denotes the proportional amount or magnitude of one quantity relative to another 12.2 - Geometric Series

  3. 5 ∑ 3n k =1 5 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 = ∑3k k = 1 Equation of Series Is read as “the sum from nequals 1 to 5 of 3n.” upper limit of summation index of summation lower limit of summation 12.2 - Geometric Series

  4. Steps Identify the number of terms, lower and upper limit, and common ratioof the summation Then, identify the missing terms by plugging the given equation Apply the geometric summation notation equation 12.2 - Geometric Series

  5. Example 1 Find the indicated sum for the geometric series of s8 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8… Step 1: Identify the number of terms, lower and upper limit of the summation 12.2 - Geometric Series

  6. Example 1 Find the indicated sum for the geometric series of s8 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8… Step 2: Find the common ratio. 12.2 - Geometric Series

  7. Example 1 Find the indicated sum for the geometric series of s8 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 … Step 3: Find s8 with a1 = 1, r = 2, and n = 8 12.2 - Geometric Series

  8. Example 2 Find the indicated sum for the geometric series of s5 = 7 + 14 + 28 …. 12.2 - Geometric Series

  12. Example 4 Evaluate 12.2 - Geometric Series

  13. Your Turn Evaluate 12.2 - Geometric Series

  14. Example 5 Evaluate 12.2 - Geometric Series

  15. Definitions Finite series has a limited number of terms, such as {1, 2, 3, 4}. Infinite series which continues without end such as {1, 2, 3, 4, …} 12.2 - Geometric Series

  16. Is it Finite vs Infinite? 1. 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 2. 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + … 3. -1/3, 1/5, -1/9, 1/17, and -1/33. 4. 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, … • Finite • Infinite • Finite • Infinite 12.2 - Geometric Series

  17. Definitions Infinite Geometric Serieshas unlimited terms Convergentseries is where the ratio is LESS than 1; it DOES have an infinite sum Divergentseries is where the ratio is MORE than 1; it DOESNOT have an infinite sum 12.2 - Geometric Series

  18. Convergent vs. Divergent Formula: Determine whether these series is eitherconvergent or divergent. Find the ratio to identify whether it is convergent or divergent. Ratio: 4/2 = 2 Ratio: 16/32 = 1/2 Divergent Convergent 12.2 - Geometric Series

  19. Examples To determine whether the series is convergent or divergent, find the ratio. 1. 10 + 1 + 0.1 + 0.01 + … 2. 4 + 12 + 36 + 108 + … 3. Convergent, r = 1/10 Divergent, r = 3 Divergent, r = 3/2 12.2 - Geometric Series

  20. Sum of infinite series formula Formula: What’s so different about this equation than the other geometric equation? Rules of r: If |r| < 1, use the formula (converges) If |r| > 1, it does not have a sum (diverges) 12.2 - Geometric Series

  21. Is it infinite or not? Given: 12.2 - Geometric Series

  22. Steps • Identify whether the INFINITE sequence geometric or not • Determine the ratio • Apply the equation, 12.2 - Geometric Series
