Q. Find the next term
1,2,4,9,125,....
Read Solution (Total 3)
-
- The Series is
1,2,4,9,125,...
=>1^0,2^1,2^2,3^2,5^3
Here the second term is repeated twice but the power increases
so, the 5^3 will be repeated twice but the power will be increased
so, the next term will be 5^4=625
625 is the answer. - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(3)
- given 1 2 4 9 125 so we write it as 1^0 2^1 2^2 3^2 5^3
the series starts with 1^0 and 2^1 for the successive terms
base for 3rd term= base of 2nd term + power of third term
power of 3rd term= base of 2nd term
similarlly
base for 4th term= base of 3rd term + power of 2nd term
power of 4th term= base of 3rd term
so the 6th term will be
base= base of 5th term + power of 4th term
power= base of 5th term
so the 6th term will be 7^5=16807 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- sorry for error. the answer is here
given 1 2 4 9 125 so we write it as 1^0 2^1 2^2 3^2 5^3
the series starts with 1^0 and 2^1 for the successive terms
base for 3rd term= base of 2nd term + power of 1st term
power of 3rd term= base of 2nd term
similarlly
base for 4th term= base of 3rd term + power of 2nd term
power of 4th term= base of 3rd term
so the 6th term will be
base= base of 5th term + power of 4th term
power= base of 5th term
so the 6th term will be 7^5=16807 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
