Answer:

Part A

f(n)=52-12(n-1)

f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}52\: \:if \: \:n=1 & \\f(n+1)+12& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right.

Part B

(2,4,8,16,32)\: \: Geometric Sequence

Part C

1/4,3/4,5/4,7/4,9/4

g(n)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}(n-1)\\f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1/4if \: \:n=1 & \\ f(n+1)+2/4& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right

Part D:

h(n)=1.1+0.4(n-1)\\h(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1.1 & if\:n=1 \\ h(n+1)+0.4 & if\:n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, an Arithmetic Sequence holds the same difference between each following number.

Part A

(52,40, 28, 16)\\52-40=12\\40-28=12\\28-16=12\\d=12

<u>Explicit Formula</u>

To write an explicit formula is to write it as function.

f(n)=52-12(n-1)

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

To write it as recursive formula, is to write it as recurrence given to some restrictions:

f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}52\: \:if \: \:n=1 & \\f(n+1)+12& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right.

Part B

(2,4,8,16,32)\: \:

Geometric Sequence, since 2*2=4 8*2=16 and 16*2=32 and 8+2=10 8+16=24

Part C

(\frac{1}{4},\frac{3}{4},\frac{5}{4},\frac{7}{4},\frac{9}{4})\\\

Arithmetic Sequence, difference

d=\frac{2}{4}

<u>Explicit Formula:</u>

g(n)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}(n-1)

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

g(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\frac{1}{4} &if\:n=1 \\ g(n+1)+\frac{2}{4} &if\: n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right.

Part D

(1.1,1.5,1.9,2.3,2.7) Arithmetic Sequence, difference d=0.4

<u>Explicit formula</u>

h(n)=1.1+0.4(n-1)\\

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

h(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1.1 &if\:n=1 \\ h(n+1)+0.4 &if\: n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right.
