Where

By comparison with

i.e. He travels at 70 miles per hour

And

This represents the initial distance as at when he started travelling (12 noon)

i.e. At noon, he is 100 miles away from home

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .
