Question -

Which term of the following sequences:

(a) 2, 2тИЪ2, 4,тАж is 128 ? (b) тИЪ3, 3, 3тИЪ3,тАж is 729 ?

(c) 1/3, 1/9, 1/27, тАж is 1/19683 ?



Answer -

(a) The givensequence, 2, 2тИЪ2, 4,тАж

We have,

a = 2 and r = 2тИЪ2/2 =тИЪ2

Taking the nth┬аtermof this sequence as 128, we have

Therefore, the 13th┬аtermof the given sequence is 128.

(ii) Given sequence,тИЪ3, 3, 3тИЪ3,тАж

We have,

a = тИЪ3 and r = 3/тИЪ3 =тИЪ3

Taking the nth┬аtermof this sequence to be 729, we have

Therefore, the 12th┬аtermof the given sequence is 729.

(iii) Given sequence,1/3, 1/9, 1/27, тАж

a = 1/3 and r =(1/9)/(1/3) = 1/3

Taking the nth┬аtermof this sequence to be 1/19683, we have

Therefore, the 9th┬аtermof the given sequence is 1/19683.
