Question

Pls help!! Consider the sequence below.

-34, -21, -8, 5...

Complete the recursively defined function to describe this sequence.

Answer 1

It seems it’s going least to greatest

Answer 2

a₁= -34

aₙ = 13n - 47

Explanation:

This is an AP with the first term of -34 and the common difference of 13.

The nth term is:

• aₙ= a₁ + (n-1)d

• aₙ= -34 + (n-1)*13

• aₙ = 13n - 47

This is the required formula.
