I. IDENTIFICATION. Fill each blank to make the statement true.
1. A sequence in which each term is obtained by multiplying the preceding term by a constant is called
a/an __________________.
2. The constant r in a geometric sequence is called the ________________.
3. The indicated sum of a geometric sequence is called a/an __________________.
4. If 𝑎𝑛 = 3(2)𝑛−3 , then 𝑎1 = ___________.

Sana ARITHMETIC nalang tayo para kahit may COMMON DIFFERENCE tayo,
IKAW parin ang kukumpleto ng SEQUENCE ng BUHAY ko.
