The correct Answer is:
To find the next term in the sequence \( \sqrt{12}, \sqrt{27}, \sqrt{48}, \sqrt{75} \), we will first simplify each term and then identify a pattern. ### Step 1: Simplify each term 1. **First Term**: \[ \sqrt{12} = \sqrt{4 \times 3} = 2\sqrt{3} \] 2. **Second Term**: \[ \sqrt{27} = \sqrt{9 \times 3} = 3\sqrt{3} \] 3. **Third Term**: \[ \sqrt{48} = \sqrt{16 \times 3} = 4\sqrt{3} \] 4. **Fourth Term**: \[ \sqrt{75} = \sqrt{25 \times 3} = 5\sqrt{3} \] Now, we have the simplified terms: \[ 2\sqrt{3}, 3\sqrt{3}, 4\sqrt{3}, 5\sqrt{3} \] ### Step 2: Identify the pattern The coefficients of \(\sqrt{3}\) in the simplified terms are: - First term: 2 - Second term: 3 - Third term: 4 - Fourth term: 5 We can see that the coefficients form an arithmetic progression (AP) with a common difference of 1. ### Step 3: Find the next term To find the next term, we continue the pattern: - The next coefficient after 5 is \(5 + 1 = 6\). Thus, the next term in the sequence will be: \[ 6\sqrt{3} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the next term We can express \(6\sqrt{3}\) in terms of a square root: \[ 6\sqrt{3} = \sqrt{(6^2 \times 3)} = \sqrt{36 \times 3} = \sqrt{108} \] ### Conclusion The next term in the sequence is: \[ \sqrt{108} \]
