Question

Use inductive reasoning to predict the next number in the sequence.
4) 1, -1/4, 1/16, -1/64, 1/256, . .

Answer 1

1/4^n then change from positive to negative alternatively.
then sequence shown goes to n=5.. therefore the next value at n=6 should be -1/4^6 = -1/1024

Answer 2

Use inductive reasoning to determine the next two terms in each sequence 1/2 1/4 1/8 1/16
