A geometric sequence is a sequence with a common ratio multiplied by previous term to give the next. Lets call x the common ratio, so we know that 4 was multiplied by x to give the second term, and so forth until it was multiplied again and again by x until the 16384 was reached which happens to be the 13th term, that means that 4x was multiplied by x 12 more times to give 16384, that is: 4x^12 = 16384 x^12 = 4096 x = 4096^-12 x = 4.48 x 10^-44 that is the common ratio
a=4
r = \frac{-16}{4}r=4−16
r = -4r=−4
a_{13} = 4×(-4)^{(13-1)}a13=4×(−4)(13−1)
a_{13} = 4×(-4)^{12}a13=4×(−4)12
a_{13} = 4×16777216a13=4×16777216
a_{13} = 67108864a13=67108864

3,720,087 sorry if I’m wrong
A
Step-by-step explanation:
You plug in 13 to n-1. to get -2^12. This equates to 4096, and you multiply that by 3
6377292
Step-by-step explanation:
it keeps on multiplying by 3.
[tex]\large \boxed{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is
aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹
In your geometric sequence, a₁ = 4 and a₁₃ = 16 384.
[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}16384 & = & 4r^{(13 - 1)}}\\16384 & = & 4r^{12}\\4096 & = & r^{12}\\3.6124 & = & 12 \log r\\0.30102 & = & \log r\\r & = & 10^{0.30102}\\ & = & \mathbf{2}\\\end{array}\\\text{The common ratio is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{2}}$}[/tex]
Check:
[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}16384 & = & 4(2)^{12}\\16384 & = & 4(4096)\\16384 & = & 16384\\\end{array}[/tex]
It checks.
-875
Step-by-step explanation:
the pattern is to multiply the last number by -5.
20, 480
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is just x multiplied by 2
If you follow the sequence, on the 13th term, the number is 20,480.
4096
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of a geometric sequence is
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a[tex](r)^{n-1}[/tex]
where a is the first term and r the common ratio
Here a = 1 and r = 2 ÷ 1 = 4 ÷ 2 = 2, thus
[tex]a_{13}[/tex] = 1 × [tex]2^{12}[/tex] = 4096
1708984375
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to get from 7 to -35 you need to multiply by -5
so that is what it is increasing by... a multiple of -5
