idk sry
2,6,18,54...
do u see any pattern in the sequence ?
the first question is asking u to find "common ratio" : just take ratio of two adjacent terms : 6/2 = ? 18/6 = ? 54/18 = ?
Yes !
each number is getting multiplied by 3, eh ?
2.Complete each statement. a) A(1) = 2=2*3^? b) A(2)=6=2*3=2*3^? c) A(3)=18=2*3*3*3=2*3^? d)A(4)=54=2*3*3*3=2*3^?
can u complete this table now ?
the given sequence : 2,6,18,54...
whats the first term ?
2 is the first term right ?
so, can we write, 2 as below : a) A(1) = 2=2*3^0 ?
the second term is 6, it can be writtes as : b) A(2)=6=2*3=2*3^1
similarly, the third term is 18, can be written as : c) A(3)=18=2*3*3*3=2*3^2
getting ?
see if u can complete the below table now : 2.Complete each statement. a) A(1) = 2=2*3^? b) A(2)=6=2*3=2*3^? c) A(3)=18=2*3*3*3=2*3^? d)A(4)=54=2*3*3*3=2*3^?
Excellent !
3.What is the relationship between the exponent of the base 3 and value of n?
just put something like below : as the value of "n" increases, the base gets multiplied by itself that particular number of times...
4.Complete the statement: A(n)=2*3^?
wat do u think ?
noo
that just gives u 5th term, but, A(\(n\)) means, you want the \(n\)th ter
it shoudl be : 4. A(n)=2*3^(n-1)
np.. u wlc :)
