Find x so that x, X +2, X'+3 are the first three terms of a geometric sequence. Then find the 5" term of the
velikii [3]

Answer:

The fifth term is -1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first three terms of the geometric sequence is <em>x, x</em> + 2, and <em>x </em>+ 3.

So, our first term is <em>x</em>.

Then our second term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio <em>r</em>. So:

x+2=xr

And our third term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio <em>r</em> twice. Therefore:

x+3=xr^2

Solve for <em>x</em>. From the second term, we can divide both sides by <em>x: </em>

\displaystyle r=\frac{x+2}{x}

Substitute this into the third equation:

\displaystyle x+3=x\Big(\frac{x+2}{x}\Big)^2

Square:

\displaystyle x+3 = x\Big( \frac{(x+2)^2}{x^2} \Big)

Simplify:

\displaystyle x+3=\frac{(x+2)^2}{x}

We can multiply both sides by <em>x: </em>

x(x+3)=(x+2)^2

Expand:

x^2+3x=x^2+4x+4

Isolate the <em>x: </em>

-x=4

Hence, our first term is:

x=-4

Then our common ratio <em>r</em> is:

\displaystyle r=\frac{(-4)+2}{-4}=\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac{1}{2}

So, our first term is -4 and our common ratio is 1/2.

Then our sequence will be -4, -2, -1, -1/2, -1/4.

You can verify that the first three terms indeed follow the pattern of <em>x</em>, <em>x</em> + 2, and <em>x</em> + 3.

So, our fifth term is -1/4.
