What is the 5th term of the sequence which has a first term of 17?
That depends what the pattern of the sequence is.
What is the 5th term of this geometric sequence 100 20 4 0.8 ...?
0.16
How is the recursive form of a sequence sometimes more useful than the closed form where a rule is found to find any term based on its position in the sequence?
"The recursive form is very useful when there aren't too many terms in the sequence. For instance, it would be fairly easy to find the 5th term of a sequence recursively, but the closed form might be better for the 100th term. On the other hand, finding the closed form can be very difficult, depending on the sequence. With computers or graphing calculators, the 100th term can be found quickly recursively."
How to find the 5th term in an arithmetic sequence using the explicit rule?
Nth number in an arithmetic series equals 'a + nd', where 'a' is the first number, 'n' signifies the Nth number and d is the amount by which each term in the series is incremented. For the 5th term it would be a + 5d
What is the next series 14101931?
If the sequence is 1,4,10,19,31,...... Then the sequence formula is, 1 + 3/2n(n - 1) Confirm 5th term....1 + (3/2 x 5 x 4) = 1 + 30 = 31 the 6th (next) term = 1 + (3/2 x 6 x 5) = 1 + 45 = 46
