Question

Find the first 4 terms in each sequence​

Answer 1

Answer:

a₁ = -21  (Given)

a₂ = -28

a₃ = -35

a₄ = -42

Step-by-step explanation:

First term a₁ = -21  (Given)

…………………………………

Second term a₂ :

a₂ = $a_{2-1} - 7\\a_{1} - 7\\a_{1} = -21\\-21 - 7 = -28$

…………………………………

Third term a₃ :

a₃ = $a_{3-1} - 7\\a_{2} - 7\\a_{2} = -28\\-28 - 7 = -35$

…………………………………

Fourth term a₄ :

a₄ = $a_{4-1} - 7\\a_{3} - 7\\a_{3} = -35\\-35 - 7 = -42$
