ANSWER

The recursive formula is


a_n = a_ {n - 1}+ 4

Step-by-step explanation

The given sequence is 12,16,20,24,28

The first term of this sequence is


a_1=12

The common difference is

d=16-12

d=4

The recursive formula is given by


a_n = a_ {n - 1}+ d

So we need to substitute the known values to get


a_n = a_ {n - 1}+ 4
