The second and fourth terms of an exponential sequence (G.P) are \(\frac{2}{9}\) and \(\frac{8}{81}\) respectively. Find the sixth term of the sequence
ar = \(\frac{2}{9}\) .....(i)
ar\(^3\) = \(\frac{8}{81}\) ......(ii)
\(\frac{ar3}{ar} = \frac{8}{81} \times \frac{9}{2}\)
r\(^2 = \frac{4}{9}\)
r = \(\sqrt{\frac{4}{9}}\)
= \(\frac{2}{3}\)
ar = \(\frac{2}{9}\)
a(\(\frac{2}{3}\)) = \(\frac{2}{9}\)
a = (\(\frac{2}{3}\)) = \(\frac{2}{9}\)
a = \(\frac{2}{9} \times \frac{3}{2}\)
a = \(\frac{1}{3}\)
T\(_r\) = ar\(^5\) = (\(\frac{1}{3}\))(\(\frac{2}{5}\))\(^5\)
= \(\frac{32}{729}\)
