Question

What are the first seven terms of the sequence whose first term is 100, and each term after the first is 8 less than the preceding term?

Answer 1

100, 92, 84, 76, 68, 60, 52.

Explanation:

If you take 100 and subtract 8 you get 92. So you just subtract 8 from 100, 7 times and write down what you get each time you subtract.

Answer 2

100, 92, 84, 76, 68, 60, 52.
