2. Find the next three terms of the sequence.
-2,-12,-72,-432,...
You multiply each number by 6.
What do you think?
Oh that makes sense thank you!
To find the next three terms of the sequence -2, -12, -72, -432, we first need to determine the pattern or rule behind the sequence.
Looking at the terms, we can see that each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by -6.
So, to find the next term, we can multiply the last term (-432) by -6:
-432 x -6 = 2,592
Therefore, the next term of the sequence is 2,592.
To find the second term after that, we repeat the same process:
2,592 x -6 = -15,552
Therefore, the second next term of the sequence is -15,552.
To find the third term after that, we repeat the process one more time:
-15,552 x -6 = 93,312
Therefore, the third next term of the sequence is 93,312.
Therefore, the next three terms of the sequence are 2,592, -15,552, and 93,312.
