I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Creating the rule 3x+12 to describe a sequence of numbers is an example of the usage of deductive reasoning. <span>Deduction is logical reasoning based on the understanding of all pieces in a given scenario.</span>
4th term = 29
to generate the terms, substitute n = 2, 3, 4 into the rule
noting that b(1) = - 7
b(2) = b(2 - 1) + 12 = b(1) + 12 = -7 + 12 = 5
b(3) = b(3 - 1) + 12 = b(2) + 12 = 5 + 12 = 17
b(4) = b(4 - 1) + 12 = b(3) + 12 = 17 + 12 = 29
