Consider the sequence −8, −4, 0, 4, 8, 12, ellipsis. Select True or False for each statement. A recursive rule for the sequence is f(1) = −8; f(n) = −4 (n − 1) for all n ≥ 2. A True B False An explicit rule for the sequence is f(n) = −8 + 4 (n − 1). A True B False The tenth term is 28.

Question
Answer:
Answer:A recursive rule for the sequence is f(1) = -8; f(n) = -4 (n – 1) for all n ≥ 2 is "FALSE"An explicit rule for the sequence is f(n) = -8 + 4 (n – 1) is "TRUE"The tenth term is 28 is "TRUE"Step-by-step explanation:Statement (1)While the first part [f(1) = –8] is TRUE, the second part [f(n) = –4 (n – 1) for all n ≥ 2] would only be true if the sequence ends at the second term.Check: Since the fifth term of the sequence is 8, then f(5) = 8From the statement, f(5) = –4 (5 – 1)f(5) = –4 × 4 = –16:. f(5) ≠ 8Statement (2)f(n) = –8 + 4 (n – 1) is TRUECheck: The fifth term of the sequence is 8 [f(5) = 8]From the statement, f(5) = –8 + 4 (5 – 1)f(5) = –8 + 4 (4)f(5) = –8 + 16 = 8:. f(5) = 8Statement (3)f(10) = 28 is TRUESince the explicit rule is TRUE, use to confirm if f(10) = 28:f(10) = –8 + 4 (10 – 1)f(10) = –8 + 4 (9)f(10) = –8 + 36f(10) = 28:. f(10) = 28
