Answer:
I think the answer is 288.
Step-by-step explanation:
The rule seems to be multiplying the past number by 2. So, 9*2=18 and 18*2=36. If we continued that rule we would then get 72, 144, and the sixth term is then 288.
hope this helps :D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric sequence because any term divided by the previous term is a constant called the common ratio. r=36/18=18/9=2 A geometric sequence is expressed as
[tex]a_n=ar^{n-1},\text{ where a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number}\\ \\ a_n=9(2^{n-1})\\ \\ a_6=9(2^5)\\ \\ a_6=288[/tex]
