The formula
a(n) = 2 - 5(n-1)
is in the form
a(n) = a1 + d(n-1)
where
a1 = first term = 2
d = -5 = common difference
The first term is carried over to the recursive formula. We start with a1 = 2. The next term after that is found by subtracting 5 from the previous term. So
second term = (first term) - 5
third term = (second term) - 5
and so on
The recursive step would be
a(n) = a(n-1)-5
So that's why the answer is choice C
The only 'small number' that I know that would affect the answer is an exponent that looks like ³ so the problem would be x³+x
remember that x³=x times x times x
if x=3 then
3³+3=27+3=30
I think u forgot to put pic for we can see the triangle
Answer:
It would be A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because, 5 x 0 is 0, 5 x 1 is 5, 5 x 2 is 10, and so on. Its really just counting in 10s.
