Chapter 12: Q. 41 (page 1174)

In the following exercise, using factorial notation, write the first five terms of the sequence whose general term is given.
$a_{n} = (2 n)!$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The first five terms of the sequence whose general term is $a_{n} = (2 n)!$ are 2, 24, 720, 40320, 3628800.

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given information

$\begin{array}{l} Thegeneraltermsforthesequenceisgivenas \\ a_{n} = (2 n)! \\ Wehavetofindthefirstfivetermsforthesequence. \end{array}$

Step 2. Calculating the terms

$\begin{array}{l} Now, \\ Weknow, \\ 鈬� n! = n (n 鈭� 1) (n 鈭� 2) (n 鈭� 3) ... \end{array}$

localid="1645625799969" $\begin{matrix} n : & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ a_{n} : & \begin{array}{l} a_{1} = (2 鈰� 1)! \\ = 2! \\ = 2 脳 1 \\ = 2 \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} a_{2} = (2 鈰� 2)! \\ = 4! \\ = 4 脳 3 脳 2 脳 1 \\ = 24 \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} a_{3} = (2 鈰� 3)! \\ = 6! \\ = 6 脳 5 脳 4 脳 3 脳 2 脳 1 \\ = 720 \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} a_{2} = (2 鈰� 4)! \\ = 8! \\ = 8 脳 7 脳 6 脳 5 脳 4 脳 3 脳 2 脳 1 \\ = 40320 \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} a_{2} = (2 鈰� 5)! \\ = 10! \\ = 10 脳 9 脳 8 脳 7 脳 6 脳 5 脳 4 脳 3 脳 2 脳 1 \\ = 3628800 \end{array} \end{matrix}$

Step 3. Conclusion

From the above table, we can observe that the first five terms of sequence will be $2, 24, 720, 40320, 3628800 .$
