Answer:

<h3>The second term of the sequence is y-x</h3><h3>The fourth term of the sequence is 2y-x</h3><h3>The fifth term of the sequence is 3y-x</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The next term of a Fibonacci sequence is generated by taking the sum of the 2 preceding value of the sequence. Given the the first and third term of a Fibonacci sequence to be x and y

x, _, y...

let the second term be a, fourth term be b and fifth term be c to have the sequence;

x, a, y, b, c...

According to the definition;

x+a = y... 1

a+y = b... 2 and;

y+b = c... 3

From equation 1, a = y-x

Substituting a = y-x into equation 2 to get b we have;

(y-x)+y = b

2y-x = b

b = 2y-x

Substituting b = 2y-x into equation 3 to get 'c'

y +  2y-x = c

3y-x = c

c = 3y-x

The second term of the sequence is y-x

The fourth term of the sequence is 2y-x

The fifth term of the sequence is 3y-x

(PLEASE ANSWER ASAP) Which number is between 1/6 and 0.25?
serg [7]

If you change both to a fraction you would see that you have 1/6 and 1/4 (.25 as a fraction). So 1/5 would be in between them.

You could also change both as a decimal. 1/6 =.166666 and .25 so any number in between them would be correct such as .2 which is the same as 1/5.
