Answer:
a. S = 3n + 2
b. There while be 62 squares.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the first term of this sequence is 5. To figure out the equation, subtract the following term from the previous. Do you see a common difference?
8 - 5 = 3
11 - 8 = 3
14 - 11 = 3
We're seeing a constant difference of 3 (which makes this an arithmetic sequence), but the first term is 5. That mean something is being added to make the first term 5. Subtract 3 from 5 to get 2. This means 2 is being added to every multiple of 3, which leads us to the equation: S = 3n + 2.
To find the 20th term of this sequence, substitute n for 20 and do the operations.
S = 3(20) + 2
<em>Multiply 3 by 20, then add 2.</em>
S = 62
The 20th term will have 62 squares.

<u>Geometric Sequence</u>
In geometric sequences, each term is found by multiplying (or dividing) the previous term by a fixed number, called the common ratio.
We are given the sequence:
48, 72, 108, ...
The common ratio is found by dividing the second term by the first term:
To ensure this is a geometric sequence, we use the ratio just calculated to find the third term a3=72*1.5=108.
Now we are sure this is a geometric sequence, we use the general term formula:
Where a1=48 and r=1.5
For example, to find the 5th term:
