The nth term of a sequence is given by 3 2 n-2 ... - WAEC Mathematics 1992 Question

The nth term of a sequence is given by 3.2\(^{n-2}\). Write down the first three terms of the sequence.

A
2/3, 0, 6
B
3/2, 3, 6,
C
2/3, 3, 8/3
D
2/3, 3/4, 6
correct option: b

\(T_n = 3. 2^{n - 2} \

T_{1} = 3. 2^{1 - 2} = 3. 2^{-1} \

T_1 = \frac{3}{2} \)

\(T_2 = 3. 2^{2 - 2} \

T_2 = 3. 2^0  = 3\)

\(T_3 = 3. 2^{3 - 2} = 3. 2^1 \

T_3 = 6\)

The first 3 terms of the sequence are \(\frac{3}{2}\), 3 and 6.
