Answer: The first 6 terms startng with the first term already given for each question are a) 100, 96. 90, 84, 78,72 b) 13, 16, 19,22,25, respectively
Explanation:
A) first 6 terms
a) Start at 100. Subtract 6 each time
First term = 100
2nd term = 100-6= 96
3rd term = 96-6=90
4th term= 90- 6= 84
5th term = 84-6= 78
6th term 78-6= 72
100, 96. 90, 84, 78,72.
b) Start at 10. Alternately, add 5 then subtract 2
First term = 10
2nd term = 10+5 -2= 13
3rd term = 13+5-2=16
4th term= 16+5-2=19
5th term = 22+5-2= 25
10, 13, 16, 19,22,25
