Question

Write the recursive
rule for the nth term.
Then find the 5th term.
{9, 14, 19...]

Answer 1

Explanation:

{9, 14, 19, ...} so it looks like 5 is added to the previous term to get next

The recursive rule may be

`a_(1) =9`

`a_(n) = a_(n-1) +5`

The fith term is you find by writing the arithmetic sequence formula

`a_(n) = a_(1) + (n-1) d` , where d is how much you add

yet for the 5th term

`a_(5) = a_(1) + (5-1)* 5`

`a_(5) = 9 +4*5 = 9+20 =29`
