Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a geometric series where the first term is 4 and the common ratio is 2, what is the 6th term? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify the first term (a) of the geometric series. In this case, a = 4.
  • Step 2: Identify the common ratio (r) of the geometric series. Here, r = 2.
  • Step 3: Identify which term (n) you want to find. We want the 6th term, so n = 6.
  • Step 4: Use the formula for the nth term of a geometric series, which is a * r^(n-1).
  • Step 5: Substitute the values into the formula: 4 * 2^(6-1).
  • Step 6: Calculate the exponent: 6 - 1 = 5, so we have 4 * 2^5.
  • Step 7: Calculate 2^5, which is 32.
  • Step 8: Multiply 4 by 32 to get the 6th term: 4 * 32 = 128.
