The first five terms of a sequence are 9,16,25,36,49,.....find
A) the 8th term.
B) the nth term?
Clearly the sequence is not a geometric progression. It is just a sequence of squares.
I think that should get you going.
(2+n)power2 (2+8)power2 (10)power2 10*10=100 for the first quetion second quetion (2+n)power 2 if the answer is correct sms me on facebook user name sung dee
To find the terms of the sequence, we can notice that each term is the square of a whole number.
A) To find the 8th term, we continue squaring the consecutive whole numbers after 7 (since the terms begin from 9). So, the next few terms are:
8th term = 64 (8^2)
B) To find the nth term, we need a formula or pattern for the sequence. Since each term is the square of a whole number, we can say that the nth term is equal to n^2.
Therefore, the nth term = n^2
