Data analysis What is the effect of reducing the constant factor for a geometric progression? How would change the curve in the figure?
To explain: The effect of reducing the constant factor for a geometric progression.
Introduction: A geometric progression tends to increase by a constant factor whereas, in the case of arithmetic progression, there is an increase by a constant difference.
Explanation of Solution
The effect of reducing the constant factor for the geometric progression will result in an overall decrease in the rise of the graph and there will be less progression.
To determine: The change that occurs in the curve.
Introduction: Geometric progression is the type of number sequence in which each term after the first term is found to be multiplying by the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio. When the difference between two successive members of sequence is fixed or constant it is said to be arithmetic progression.
Explanation of Solution
On reducing the constant factor for the geometric progression there will be a change in the path of the curve. The curve will shift to the left side and there will be more sharpness in the graph.

- Below are pictures of leaves from a Garry Oak tree (Quercus garryana). These leaves are found on the same tree, however, the top cross section is of a leaf in the lower canopy, which is relatively shaded. The other of the upper canopy, which is exposed to more sun. ENCER 40x (x.s.) Describe two differences between sun and shade leaves at the macroscopic (leaf) and two differences at the microscopic (cross section) scale and provide explanations for the differences observed in color (specific chlorophyll a vs. b enrichment and accessory pigments) and shape (leaf thickness and width). Note: You do not need to sketch out the leaf/slides.arrow_forwardCan you please explain each example why they are considered patterns or regularities involving Fibonacci sequence and the Golden ratio? A spiral staircase Cauliflower face Ear Tree branch Flower heads Flower petals Eye storm Human fetus Just a brief explanation. Please not plagiarized. I need it asap. Thank you tutors!arrow_forwardquestion: based on the graph, how could you best describe the relationship between the egg size (mass) and the number of eggs? what would be a reason to observe the relationship between the two? from what I have read about, there are several factors that can influence both the size and the number of eggs. also, its not just in butterflies where you can have larger eggs but less in quantity or smaller eggs and more in quantity. I'm trying to just figure out what a good reason for the observation would be based on the grapharrow_forward
