Question

What is the recursive formula for this geometric sequence? 6, -24, 96, -384, ...

Answer 1

Answer: a1=6

               An = An-1 - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

N represent what number in the sequence you choose. So in the equation n-1 would be the umber in the equation subtracting 1 then subtracting the difference. The factor you are multiplying by in this sequence is -4. You find the difference by taking any number in the sequence and dividing it by the previous number in the sequence.
