Answer:

a_{n} = 5(2)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is

10 ÷ 5 = 20 ÷ 10 = 40 ÷ 20 = 80 ÷ 40 = 2

this indicates the sequence is geometric with explicit formula

a_{n} = a₁(r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

here a₁ = 5 and r = 2 , then

a_{n} = 5 (2)^{n-1}

Is this correct question correct?
____ [38]

No, it is not correct.

First of all, you put the little 4 after the 8.

What you did in the equation is 8x4, not 8x8x8x8.

So, the correct answer to 8x8x8x8 would be 4096.
