Answer:
<u>Geometric Progression</u> is the explicit rule for the given sequence: 11, 22, 44, 88...
First term (a) = <u>11</u>
Common ratio (r) = 22/11 = 44/22 = 88/44 = <u>2</u>
Formula used in Geometric Progression is :---
where, 'n' is the required term
Answer:
3, 5, 7, 9, 11, .........
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
= n(n + 2) , then
S₁ = 1(1 + 2) = 1(3) = 3 ⇒ a₁ = 3
S₂ = 2(2 + 2) = 2(4) = 8
S₃ = 3(3 + 2) = 3(5) = 15
Thus
a₂ = S₂ - S₁ = 8 - 3 = 5
a₃ = S₃ - S₂ = 15 - 8 = 7
The first 3 terms are 3, 5, 7
This is an AP with common difference d = 2, then
a₄ = a₃ + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
a₅ = a₄ + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11
and so on
