Question

6(1) = 16 6(n) = b(n − 1) + 1 Find the 2-term in the sequence.

Answer 1

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$b(1)=16\\ \\b(n)=b(n-1)+1$

Finding the second term of the sequence means to find $b(2).$ To find $b(2)$ substitute $n=2$ into the second expression:

$b(2)=b(2-1)+1\\ \\b(2)=b(1)+1\\ \\b(2)=16+1\\ \\b(2)=17$
