The number of bacteria in a certain culture doubles every hour. If there were $30$ bacteria present in the culture originally, how many bacteria will be present at the end of $2^{\text {nd }}$ hour, $4^{\text {th }}$ hour and $n^{\text {th }}$ hour $?$
It is given that the number of bacteria doubles every hour. Therefore, the number of bacteria after every hour will form a $G.P.$
Here, $a=30$ and $r=2 \quad \therefore a_{3}=a r^{2}=(30)(2)^{2}=120$
Therefore, the number of bacteria at the end of $2^{\text {nd }}$ hour will be $120 .$
$a_{5}=a r^{4}=(30)(2)^{4}=480$
The number of bacteria at the end of $4^{\text {th }}$ hour will be $480 . $
$a_{n+1}=a r^{n}=(30) 2^{n}$
Thus, number of bacteria at the end of $n^{t h}$ hour will be $30(2)^{n}$
If $A = 1 + {r^z} + {r^{2z}} + {r^{3z}} + .......\infty $, then the value of $r$ will be
If the roots of the cubic equation $a{x^3} + b{x^2} + cx + d = 0$ are in $G.P.$, then
Let $a, a r, a r^2, \ldots . . .$. be an infinite $G.P.$ If $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a^n=57$ and $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a^3 r^{3 n}=9747$, then $a+18 r$ is equal to :
If the ${5^{th}}$ term of a $G.P.$ is $\frac{1}{3}$ and ${9^{th}}$ term is $\frac{{16}}{{243}}$, then the ${4^{th}}$ term will be
Insert two numbers between $3$ and $81$ so that the resulting sequence is $G.P.$
