next three terms 1,5,13,29
1 + 4 = 5
5 + 8 = 13
13 + 16 = 29
What pattern is formed by 4, 8, 16 ?
first you need to find the pattern. So subtract 29 from 13, 13 from 5, and 5 from 1. You then get 16,8,and 4. So the numbers are going up by 4. 16 +4 is 20. So you do 20+29=49 and so on and so forth.
To find the next three terms in the sequence 1, 5, 13, 29, we need to identify the pattern or rule that governs the sequence.
Looking closely, we can observe that each term in the sequence is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2 and then adding a specific number:
1 x 2 + 3 = 5
5 x 2 + 3 = 13
13 x 2 + 3 = 29
So, the rule for this sequence is to multiply the previous term by 2 and then add 3.
Now, using this rule, we can find the next three terms:
29 x 2 + 3 = 61
61 x 2 + 3 = 125
125 x 2 + 3 = 253
Therefore, the next three terms in the sequence are 61, 125, and 253.
