Write the first five terms of the seque...

Write the first five terms of the sequence whose `n^(t h)`terms are : `a_n=n(n^2+5)/4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We need to find the first five terms
i.e. `a_1, a_2, a_3, a_4 & a_5`

Given `a_n=n((n^2+5)/4) " " " " " (1)`


Putting `n=1` in `(1)`

`a_1=1((1^2+5)/4)=(1+5)/4=6/4=3/2`


Putting `n=2` in `(1)`

`a_2=2((2^2+5)/4)=2xx(4+5)/4=2xx9/4=9/2`


Putting `n=3` in `(1)`

`a_3=3((3^2+5)/4)=3xx(9+5)/4=2xx14/4=21/2`


Putting `n=4` in `(1)`

`a_4=4((4^2+5)/4)=4xx(16+5)/4=4xx21/4=21`


Putting `n=5` in `(1)`

`a_5=5((5^2+5)/4)=5xx(25+5)/4=5xx30/4=75/2`

Hence first five terms are

`3/2,9/2,21/2,21` and `75/2`
