Question

D(1)=3
B(n)=d(n-1)-14

Find the third 3rd sequence

Answer 1

The third term in the sequence defined by d(1) = 3 and B(n) = d(n-1) - 14 is -25, which is obtained by following the sequence rules to calculate each term.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking to find the third term in the sequence defined by d(1) = 3 and B(n) = d(n-1) - 14. To find the third term, we must first find the second term. Starting with the provided first term, we apply the function B(n) to calculate subsequent terms.

1. d(1) = 3
2. d(2) = B(2) = d(1) - 14 = 3 - 14 = -11
3. d(3) = B(3) = d(2) - 14 = -11 - 14 = -25

Therefore, the third term in the sequence is -25.
