Correct option is A
Given:
The sequence is: 10, 14, 23, 39, ?
Step-by-Step Solution:
1. Find the differences between consecutive terms:
- 14 - 10 = 4
- 23 - 14 = 9
- 39 - 23 = 16
2. Analyze the pattern in the differences:
- 4 =
- 9 =
- 16 =
3. The differences are consecutive squares. The next square in the sequence is:
- = 25
4. Add this difference to the last term:
- 39 + 25 = 64
Conclusion:
The next term in the sequence is 64.
