Explanation:
Let a and r are first term and common
ratio of a G.P
nth term = an = ar^n-1
Here ,
Given G.P is 2 , 2√2 , 4 .,,
a = 2 ,
r = a2/A1
r = 2√2/2
r = √2
Let n th term = 128
ar^n-1 = 128
2 × (√2)^ n - 1 = 128
2^( n - 1 )/2 = 128/2
2^( n - 1 )/2 = 64
2^( n - 1 )/2 = 2^6
( n - 1 )/2 = 6
[ Since i ) 64 = 2^6 ,
ii ) If a^m = a^n then m = n ]
n - 1 = 12
n = 12 + 1
n = 13
Therefore ,
13th term of given G.P is 128.
I hope this helps you.
