The sum of infinity of a geometric sequence is 18, and the sum to infinity of the squares of its terms is 162. Find the first term and common ratio.
Sol
Set m=r^2,,p=a(1),q=p^2
1>m>0,1>r>0
p/(1-r)=18
p=18(1-r)……………….
q/(1-m)=162
q=162(1-m)
p^2=162(1-r^2)
324(1-r)^2=162(1-r^2)
2(1-r)^2=1-r^2
2r^2-4r+2=1-r^2
3r^2-4y+1=0
(3r-1)(r-1)=0
r=1/3 or r=1(reject)
a(1)=p=18*(1-1/3)=12
