To find the fifth term of the geometric sequence 8, 0, 4, 0, 20, we need to identify a pattern. The terms appear to alternate between zero and other values, but there might be a misunderstanding since the terms provided don't follow a consistent geometric ratio. Assuming the sequence is correct as given, the fifth term is 20.
Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.
The fifth term in a sequence of ten numbers refers to the number that occupies the fifth position when the sequence is ordered from the first to the tenth term. For example, in the sequence 3, 7, 1, 4, 9, 2, 8, 5, 6, 10, the fifth term is 9. Identifying the fifth term is essential for understanding the sequence's progression or pattern.
The given sequence is a geometric sequence where each term is multiplied by 2 to get the next term. The first term (a) is 4, and the common ratio (r) is 2. The nth term of a geometric sequence can be found using the formula ( a_n = a \cdot r^{(n-1)} ). Therefore, the nth term of this sequence is ( 4 \cdot 2^{(n-1)} ).
You mean what IS a geometric sequence? It's when the ratio of the terms is constant, meaning: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16... The ratio of one term to the term directly following it is always 1:2, or .5. So like, instead of an arithmetic sequence, where you're adding a specific amount each time, in a geometric sequence, you're multiplying by that term.
The fifth term typically refers to the fifth element in a sequence or series, which can vary depending on the context (such as a mathematical series, a list, or a pattern). Without additional context, it is impossible to determine what the fifth term is. If you provide a specific sequence or series, I can help identify the fifth term.
It is a*r^4 where a is the first term and r is the common ratio (the ratio between a term and the one before it).
Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.

It is not possible to explain because you have not specified the nature of the sequence. A sequence can be an arithmetic, or geometric progression, increasing or decreasing. Or it can be a polynomial or power progression, again increasing or decreasing. Or it can be a sequence of random numbers.
Yes, it can.

A sequence is geometric if each term is found by mutiplying the previous term by a certain number (known as the common ratio). 2,4,8,16, --> here the common ratio is 2.

This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 10.
In an arithmetic sequence the same number (positive or negative) is added to each term to get to the next term.In a geometric sequence the same number (positive or negative) is multiplied into each term to get to the next term.A geometric sequence uses multiplicative and divisive formulas while an arithmetic uses additive and subtractive formulas.
