The answer is 2p+9=25. If we solve the equation we see it's true.
2p+9=25
2p=25-9
2p=16
p=16/2
p=8.
Hope this helps.

, list the first five terms of each sequence, and identify them as arithmetic or geometric.
sveta [45]

Answer: -2, 2, 6, 10, 14

It is an Arithmetic sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Recursive formula : A(n + 1) = A(n) + 4 ,  for n ≥ 1 and A(1) = -2.

A(2)=A(1 + 1) = A(1) + 4=-2+4=2

A(3)=A(2 + 1) = A(2) + 4=2+4=6

A(4)=A(3 + 1) = A(3) + 4=6+4=10

A(5)=A(4 + 1) = A(4) + 4=10+4=14

Hence, the  five terms of given sequence= -2, 2, 6, 10, 14

Since, there is common difference of 4 in two consecutive terms.

Therefore, it is an Arithmetic sequence.
