Find the 5th Term 6 , 48 , 384 , 3072

This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by ${\displaystyle 8}$ gives the next term. In other words, ${\displaystyle a_n=a_1{r}^{n-1}}$.

This is the form of a geometric sequence.

Substitute in the values of ${\displaystyle a_1=6}$ and ${\displaystyle r=8}$.

Substitute in the value of ${\displaystyle n}$ to find the ${\displaystyle n}$th term.

Subtract ${\displaystyle 1}$ from ${\displaystyle 5}$.

Raise ${\displaystyle 8}$ to the power of ${\displaystyle 4}$.
