23 + (-8) - 7 9 - 13 + 12
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the problem 7,9,13,21,37,?
Every person has various ways to determine the solution, I have also a solution i.e.
Let us assume that sum of all the terms(which are know as well as unknown) is Sn.
Sn=7+9+13+21+37+………+A(n-1)+An.____say eq.1
Now if we take this sum in such a way …….
Sn=_7+9+13+21+37+……..+A(n-2)+A(n-1)+An.
Say it eq.2
Now subtract both the equations.
eq.1-eq.2
Sn=7+9+13+21+37+…..A(n-1)+An.
Sn=_+7+9+13+21+……A(n-2)+A(n-1)+An.
After subtracting we get
0=7+[2+4+8+16+32+………A(n-1)]-An
Replacing An in RHS.
An=7+[2+4+8+16+32+…….A(n-1)]______eq(*)
Here terms inside big bracket is known as geometrical progression( GP)
Geometrical progression is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.
Sum of GP=A+Ar^1+Ar^2+…Ar^n.
So the sum of GP, first term is A and common ratio is r having (n-1) terms….. is {A*[r^(n-1)-1]}/{[r-1]}
Calculation of r(common ratio) is [second term/first term] or [third term/second term] or [An/A(n-1)].
So that from eq(*)
An=7+{2*[2^(n-1)-1]}/{[2–1]}
An=7+(2^n-2)/1
An=7+2^n-2
An=5+2^n…(this is the general term)
Put values of n=1,2,3,4,5,6……..n
A1=5+2^1=7
A2=5+2^2=9
A3=5+2^3=13
.
.
A6=5+2^6=69(this is the answer)
So sequence will be …7,9,13,21,37, 69,133….
