Sagot :

Answer:

a₄ = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

First term of GP, a₁ = 10

The common ration of GP, r = 0.5

The nth term of the GP is given by :

[tex]a_4=a_1r^{n-1}\\\\a_4=a_1r^3\\\\a_4=10\times (0.5)^3\\\\a_4=10\times 0.125\\\\a_4=1.25[/tex]

So, the fourth term of the GP is 1.25.
