In the sequence 25, 5, 36, 6,... what number should come next
A49 b12 c7 d16
I think it's 49 but the book says 7.
How in God's green earth is it that. Have I gone mad?



Answer :

Answer:

49 should be the correct awnser

Step-by-step explanation:

It is A - 49.


The pattern is: square number, root, square number, root, etc…

The root goes up by one each time (6-1=5) so the next root number would be 7 (6+1=7).

The 7 squared is 49, so the next number would be 49.

Unless there is more to the sequence that you aren’t currently aware of, the book is incorrect.
