Question

Which recursive formula can be used to generate the sequence shown, where f(1) = 9.6 and n > 1?

Answer 1

We have got an geometric progression.
We use to find any term of a geometric sequence, this equation:
an=a₁ * r^(n-1)
a₁= is the first term.
r=is the common ratio.
n=numbers of the term to find.

r=an / an-1
In this case:
r=a₂/a₁=(-4.8) / 9.6=-0.5
a₁=9.6

an=9.6*(-0.5)^(n-1)

Answer 2

Answer:

an=9.6*(-0.5)^(n-1)
