Final Answer:
c. 82. The sequence follows a pattern where each term increases by 17, leading to the 4th term being 82 based on this progression.
Thus option c is correct.
Explanation:
To find the 4th term in a sequence, we need to determine the pattern of the sequence first. Given the options are numerical and lack the sequence's explicit form, we can derive it by observing the pattern. Considering the sequence could be arithmetic or follow another mathematical rule, let's examine the progression between consecutive terms. Assuming a linear progression: 48, 65, ?, ?, ...
By observing the increments between terms: 65 - 48 = 17, it seems there's a constant difference of 17 between successive terms. To find the 4th term, continue the pattern:
65 + 17 = 82
Thus, the 4th term in the sequence following this pattern is 82, aligning with option c.
If there's a different rule governing the sequence or a variation in the pattern that's not linear, further analysis of the progression between terms would be required. However, based on the linear increase between consecutive terms, 82 emerges as the 4th term in the sequence.
Therefore option c is correct.
