Answer:

Explanation:

To find the recursive formula for the arithmetic sequence 28, 22, 16, 10, we need to identify the pattern and the common difference between consecutive terms.

Observing the given sequence, we can see that each term is obtained by subtracting 6 from the previous term. Therefore, the common difference is -6.

Now, let's denote the nth term of the sequence as aₙ. The recursive formula for an arithmetic sequence is typically written in the form aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d, where d is the common difference.

Using this formula, we can write the recursive formula for the given sequence:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ - 6

However, it seems there is some formatting issue in the question, and it is unclear how the expression "Check = = 0 for n ≥ 2" is related to the sequence. If you can provide more context or clarify the expression, I can assist you further.
