Answer:


a_1 = -11\\\\a_n = a_((n - 1)) + 22

Explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is generally given as:

f(n) = a + (n - 1)d

where a = first term and f(n) = nth term, d = common difference

The explicit formula given is:

f(n) = 11 + 22(n - 1)

The recursive formula is made of two statements, the first term and the formula showing how successive terms are related.

Mathematically, it is given as:


a_1 = a\\\\a_n = a_((n - 1)) + d

Therefore, the recursive formula is:


a_1 = -11\\\\a_n = a_((n - 1)) + 22
