Students and identify the explicit formula for nth term of a geometric sequence. They use what they have learned about geometric sequences, to determine how much money is promised in the stated problem and explain the flaw in the reasoning that all participants would get rich by the scheme.

Students form a pattern called a geometric sequence by dropping a golf ball from successive heights. They explore the constant factor of this sequence, referred to as the constant or common ratio. Finally, students develop a plan for data collection and analysis to demonstrate that the stated hypothesis is valid. Full Review »

Students find common ratios of geometric sequences on a spreadsheet. Using this data they create scatter plots of the sequences to determine how each curve is related to the value of the common ratio. Students then generate geometric sequences on a spreadsheet and develop a formula to find any term of the sequence. Full Review »
