Answer:

2^(n-1)

Explanation:

To find the nth term of the sequence 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,..., we can observe that each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2. Therefore, the pattern can be described by the formula:

nth term = 2^(n-1)

In this formula, n represents the position of the term in the sequence.

For example: I

If we want to find the 5th term, we substitute n = 5 into the formula:

5th term = 2^(5-1) = 2^4 = 16

So, the 5th term of the sequence is 16.
