Write a recursive formula for the sequence 7, 4, 1, –2, –5, .... Then find the next term. (1 point) an = an–1 – 3, where a1 = –8; 7 an = an–1 – 3, where a1 = 7; –8 an = an–1 + 3, where a1 = –3; 22 an = an–1 + 3, where a1 = 7; –8
Question
Answer:
4 = 7 - 31 = 4 - 3
-2 = 1 - 3
-5 = -2 - 3
=> An = A (n-1) - 3, where A1 = 7
The next term is A6 = A5 - 3 = - 5 - 3 = - 8
So the answer is the fourth option.
