Provide an appropriate response.Is the following sequence geometric? Explain.log 8, log 82, log 84, log 88, . . .

What will be an ideal response?


Yes, the sequence is geometric. Using the power rule of logarithms, the sequence can be rewritten as log 8, 2 log 8, 4 log 8, 8 log 8, . . . . This is a geometric sequence with a1= log 8 and r = 2. (Explanations will vary.)
