Find the next term
8,8,6,2,..?
Read Solution (Total 26)
-
- 8 , 8, 6, 2, x
i guess each differ in d range of 2
8 - 8 = 0
8 - 6 = 2
6 - 2 = 4
2 - x should be "6"
2 - x = 6
x = -4
Ans : -4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(91) No(0)
- 8,8,6,2,x
here,
8-0=8
9-1=8
10-4=6
11-9=2
so 1,4,9 are squares of 1,2,3
so next number will be
12-16=-4
ans:-4

- 8 8 6 2 x
0 2 4 y
2 2 2
y-4=2
y=6
2-x=y => 2-x=6 =>x=-4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
- 8,8,6,2,....
8-8=0
8-6=2
6-2=4
SO,-4-2=6,The diff. of successive nos are in increasing order - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- Ans:-4
8 8 6 2 x
Diff. 0 2 4 6
Soln:2-x=6
Orx=-4
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- 8-0=8
8-2=6
6-4=2
2-6=-4
Answer=-4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 8-8=0,8-6=2,6-2=4,so we easily find that the difference is 0,2,4.so next should be 6.
so,2-x=6;
x=2-6=-4, so the correct ans is -4

- 8-0=8,8-2=6,6-4=2,2-6=-4
ans=-4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 8-0=8
8-2=6
6-4=2
2-6=-4
ANS: -4
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- -4 is the answer
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 8,8,6,2,x
here,
8-0=8
9-1=8
10-4=6
11-9=2
so 1,4,9 are squares of 1,2,3
so next number will be
12-16=-4
ans:-48,8,6,2,x
here,
8-0=8
9-1=8
10-4=6
11-9=2
so 1,4,9 are squares of 1,2,3
so next number will be
12-16=-4
ans:-48,8,6,2,x
here,
8-0=8
9-1=8
10-4=6
11-9=2
so 1,4,9 are squares of 1,2,3
so next number will be
12-16=-4
ans:-4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- -6
the differnce is decreasing by even numbers
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- AS given 8 , 8, 6, 2, x
here each differ in d range of 2
8 - 8 = 0
8 - 6 = 2
6 - 2 = 4
2 - x should be "6"
2 - x = 6
x = -4
Ans -4 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- answer is -6....
all the terms are increasing in power of 2....
0
2
4
8....if it is not true then explain - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
- next term would be -4 as the difference between two consecutive no's have differene of 2 (8-8=0,6-8=-2,2-6=-4 so next term would be -4)
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- ans is 4 because
8*1=8
8*2=16=>6
6*2=32=>2
2*2=4=>4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- ans=-4
8-8=0
8-6=2
6-2=4
4-6=-4
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 8-8=0
8-6=2
6-2=4
2-x= 6=>x=-4
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 8-0=8
8-2=6
6-4=2
2-6=-4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Answer is 4
8+8=16 ->ones place.. 6
16+16=32 -> ones place ..2
32+32=64 -> ones place .. 4 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 8-0^2=8
9-1^2=8
10-2^2=6
11-3^2=2
12-4^2=-4 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- ans is -4
the difference between second term and first term it should be even number - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 8-8=0
6-8=-2
2-6=-4
-4-2=-6
ans :- -6 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 8-8=0
8-6=2
6-2=4
2-x=6
x=-4 - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 8-0=8
8-2=6
6-4=2
2-6=-4 - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- difference is decreasing by 2.
8-8=0
8-6=2
6-2=4
2-x=6 or,X=2-6=-4.
so, the series will be 8,8,6,2,-4 - 1 year agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
