The 2nd and 5th term are 10,200 is it so which term is it?
your question could be worded better.
I guess r^3 = 20
or 3d = 190
maybe that can get you started.
Help me for my home work
To determine which term in the sequence has a value of 10,200, we need to find the pattern of the sequence. Since we only have two terms (2nd and 5th), we can assume that the sequence is an arithmetic progression.
In an arithmetic sequence, each term is obtained by adding or subtracting a common difference (d) to the previous term. Let's assume that the first term is represented by a_1.
The 2nd term (a_2) can then be calculated using the formula: a_2 = a_1 + d. Similarly, the 5th term (a_5) would be: a_5 = a_1 + 4d.
Given that the 2nd and 5th terms are both equal to 10,200, we can write the following equations:
a_2 = a_1 + d = 10,200
a_5 = a_1 + 4d = 10,200
By subtracting the first equation from the second equation, we can eliminate a_1:
a_5 - a_2 = (a_1 + 4d) - (a_1 + d)
10,200 - 10,200 = 3d
0 = 3d
d = 0
This means that the common difference is zero. In other words, each term in the sequence is equal to 10,200.
Therefore, every term in the sequence is 10,200, and there is no specific term with that value.
