Relationship Between Arithmetic Mean, Harmonic Mean, and Geometric Mean of Two Numbers

For two numbers x and y, let x, a, y be a sequence of three numbers. If x, a, y is an arithmetic progression then 'a' is called arithmetic mean. If x, a, y is a geometric progression then 'a' is called geometric mean. If x, a, y form a harmonic progression then 'a' is called harmonic mean. … Continue reading Relationship Between Arithmetic Mean, Harmonic Mean, and Geometric Mean of Two Numbers

Derivation of General term, Sum of Finite and Infinite Geometric Progression

Geometric Progression, GP Geometric progression (also known as geometric sequence) is a sequence of numbers where the ratio of any two adjacent terms is constant. The constant ratio is called the common ratio, r of geometric progression. Each term therefore in geometric progression is found by multiplying the previous one by r. Eaxamples of GP: 3, … Continue reading Derivation of General term, Sum of Finite and Infinite Geometric Progression

ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION – FORMULAS

Arithmetic Progression definition Arithmetic Progression (also called arithmetic sequence), is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant. Each term therefore in an arithmetic progression will increase or decrease at a constant value called the common difference, d. Examples of arithmetic progression are: 2, 5, 8, 11,... common difference … Continue reading ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION – FORMULAS
