Question

Find the 4th term in the sequence with the following definition:

Answer 1

The 4th term in the sequence is -37

Recursive function

Given the following recursive function and first term as show below

a1 = -2

an = 2an-1 - 3

For the second term

a2. = 2a1 - 3

a2 = 2(-2) - 3

a2 = -7

For the third term

a3 = 2a2 - 3

a3 = 2(-7) - 3

a3 = -17

a4 = 2a3 - 3

a4 = 2(-17) - 3

a4 = -37

Hence the 4th term in the sequence is -37
