    The document describes a sequence where each term is double the previous term multiplied by a power of 10. The next two terms are 16×108 and 32×1010. All the ratios of consecutive terms divided by each other are equal, with a ratio r of 2. Using this pattern, the 10th term is 256×1012. Representing this in scientific notation gives 2m×10n, where m increases by 1 and n increases by 4 each term. Following the pattern, the 100th term is 1.024×10200. The formula for the nth term is 2n-1×104(n-1), which is verified to match the given terms.

    Pattern

    Consider the terms 2 ×102 , 4 ×10 4 , 8× 106 , … … … … ..


    1. Write the next two terms of the sequence. (No need to convert in scientific form)

    2. Show that the values of "the second term divided by the first term of the above sequence". and
    "third term divided by the second term" and "fourth term divided by the third term" are all equal.
    Let us represent the ratio be r.
      

    3. How does the above answer helps to get next two terms. Explain.

    4. If the same sequence continues, find the value of tenth term. (No need to convert in scientific
    form)

    5. Represent the above answer as 2m ×10n form.

    6. Using your observations from the above questions, find the 100th term.

    7. Give a formula for nth term.

    8. Verify your formula for nth term is correct.
