The first five terms of the sequence are:
6 , 8 , [tex]\frac{32}{3}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{128}{9}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{512}{27}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The recursive formula of the sequence is
[tex]a_{1}=6[/tex] and [tex]a_{n}=\frac{4}{3}*a_{n-1}[/tex]
To find the first five terms do that:
∵ [tex]a_{1}=6[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{2}=\frac{4}{3}*6[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{2}=8[/tex]
∵ [tex]a_{2}=8[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{3}=\frac{4}{3}*8[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{3}=\frac{32}{3}[/tex]
∵ [tex]a_{3}=\frac{32}{3}[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{4}=\frac{4}{3}*\frac{32}{3}[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{4}=\frac{128}{9}[/tex]
∵ [tex]a_{4}=\frac{128}{9}[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{5}=\frac{4}{3}*\frac{128}{9}[/tex]
∴ [tex]a_{5}=\frac{512}{27}[/tex]
The first five terms of the sequence are:
6 , 8 , [tex]\frac{32}{3}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{128}{9}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{512}{27}[/tex]
