The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if necessary). 50, 60,72,... Find the 8th term.

179.159

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence :

50, 60, 72,..

The sequence given is a geometric sequence :

For a geometric sequence ;

ar^(n - 1)

a = first term

r = a2 / a1 = 60 / 50 = 1.2

The 8th term ; n =8

a8 = ar^(n - 1)

a8 = 50*1.2^(8 - 1)

a8 = 50*1.2^7

a8 = 50*3.5831808

a8 = 179.15904

a8 = 179.159 (nearest thousandth )

well what you have to do is divide 84 by 6 so theanswer

step-by-step explanation:

84 divided by 6 = 14

and that lightbulb changing party must be freaking lit!

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

the first term is 6.

the common difference d = ?

when you find d, replace n with 7 and d with the common difference to find your answer.
