The recursive formula of the geometric sequence is given by option D; an = (1) × (5)^(n - 1) for n ≥ 1

<h3>How to determine recursive formula of a geometric sequence?</h3>

Given: 1, 5, 25, 125, 625, ...

first term, a = 1

Common ratio, r = 25/5

= 5

n = number of terms

an = a × r^(n - 1)

= 1 × 5^(n - 1)

an = (1) × (5)^(n - 1) for n ≥ 1

tom had a platter of chocolate wafers. he ate 5 of them and then gave his brother 3 he then moved on to his baseball team of 8 m

Aloiza [94]

Tom started with total 72 chocolate wafers.

Explanation

The number of chocolate wafers taken by 8 members of the baseball team are in the sequence : $1, 3,5,7,9,11,13,15$

The above sequence is arithmetic sequence with first term(a₁)= 1 and common difference (d) = 2

Formula for Sum of first $n$ terms in arithmetic sequence is....

$S_{n}= \frac{n}{2}[2a_{1}+(n-1)d]$

So, the Sum of 8 terms in that sequence....

$S_{8}= \frac{8}{2}[2(1)+(8-1)(2)]\\ \\ S_{8}= 4[2+7(2)]\\ \\ S_{8}=4(2+14)\\ \\ S_{8}=4(16)=64$

That means, the total number of chocolate wafers taken by the baseball team members is 64. Tom ate 5 and then gave his brother 3 chocolate wafers at first.

So, the total number of chocolate wafers at starting $=64+5+3=72$
