Question

-4,-8, -16,... what is the 7th term sequence

Answer 1

If the sequence is -4,-8,-16,.. then the seventh term be -256.

Given a sequence be -4,-8,-16,...

We are required to find the seventh term of the sequence.

If we carefully observe the sequence then we will find that the sequence is a geometric progression.

Geometric progression is a sequence which has a common ratio between all the terms.

Ratio of 2nd and 3rd term=-8/-4=2

Ratio of 3rd and 2nd term=-16/-8=2

Because the ratio is equal, so the sequence will be called a geometric progression.

Nth term of G.P=a$r^{n-1}$

7th term=-4*$(2)^{7-1}$

=-4*64

=-256

Hence if the sequence is -4,-8,-16,.. then the seventh term be -256.
