Find the 8th term in sries?
2,2,12,12,30,30,.........
Read Solution (Total 21)
-
- 1^1+1=2
2^2-2=2
3^2+3=12
4^2-4=12
5^2+5=30
6^2-6=30
so next two 7th=(7^2+7)=56 & 8th=(8^2-8)=56
ans 56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(98) No(9)
- answer is 56.
given series is 2, 2, 12, 12, 30, 30,........
we know about the natural numbers 1, 2, 3, 4,.....
so, the series works in following way.
1 * 2 = 2
2 * 1 = 2
3 * 4 = 12
4 * 3 = 12
5 * 6 = 30
6 * 5 = 30
7 * 8 = 56
8 * 7 = 56
so its simple and our required ans is 56. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(79) No(5)
- Look upon the series carefully
2,2,12,12,30,30,.........
1^1 + 1 = 2
2^2 - 2 = 2
3^2 + 3 = 12
4^2 - 4 = 12
5^2 + 5 = 30
6^2 - 6 = 30
Similarly
7th term will be(7^2+7)=56 &
8th term will be(8^2-8)=56
answer will be 56
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(1)
- 1*2=2
3*4=12
5*6=30 so the 8th term will be
7*8=56. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(2)
- Answer is 56
1x2=2
2x1=2
3x4=12
4x3=12
5x6=30
6x5=30
so now 7x8=56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(0)
- 1x2=2
2x1=2
3x4=12
4x3=12
5x6=30
6x5=30
similarly
7x8=56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(1)
- First it is repeated and then incremented by 10,18,26..lyk dat
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- consider even terms..
so that we get.,
write all the terms twice..
2^2-2=2
4^4-4=12
6^6-6=30
8^8-8=56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(1)
- 1*2 = 2
2*1 = 2
2*6 = 12
6*2 = 12
3 * 10 = 30
10*3= 30
4 * 14 = 56
14 * 4 = 56
5 * 18 = 90
18 * 5 = 90
thereforem 8th term is 56
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(4)
- it vl be 56
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 2,2,12,12,30,30,40,40......can be
as sum of 1st and 8th is equal to sum of 2nd and 7th ....and so on!!!
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 56 because the series is incremented by 10, 18, 26 and incremented takes place after two same no.
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 1^1+1=2
2^2-2=2
3^2+3=12
4^2-4=12
5^2+5=30
6^2-6=30
so next two 7th=(7^2+7)=56 & 8th=(8^2-8)=56
ans 56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 1x2=2
2x1=2
3x4=12
4x3=12
5x6=30
6x5=30
similarly
7x8=56
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 1^2+1=2....repeat
3^2+3=12...
5^2+5=30...
7^2+7=56...
so ans is 56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 2+(2*5)=12;
12+(3*6)=30;
30+(4*7)=58;
so, ans is 58. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- answer 56(7^2+7)=56 & 8th=(8^2-8)=56
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 56,56 will be answer 7^7+7=56
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 4^2 6^2 10^2 18^2
4 6 10 difference is 2 and 4 so again 2 and 4 is in 2*2 so next term is 4 and again from that next series is 4*2 so 8 and again 8*2=16 therefore 18+16=34 and is 34^2 gives 1156. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- 56
1*2=2
3*4=12
5*6=30
7*8=56 - 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- The answer is 56
- 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
