larger amount = 630

the smaller amount, that is 5 parts is 450

divide 450 by 5 to find 1 part of the ratio

$\frac{450}{5}$ = 90 ← 1 part

7 parts, the larger amount = 7 × 90 = 630

Let {an} be a sequence that satisfies the recurrence relation an = an-1 + 3 for n = 1, 2, 3, ... , and suppose that a0 = 2. What

Arturiano [62]

Given:

$a_n=a_{n-1}+3$

$a_0=2$

To find:

The values $a_1,a_2,a_3$ .

Solution:

We have,

$a_n=a_{n-1}+3$

For $n=1$ ,

$a_1=a_{1-1}+3$

$a_1=a_{0}+3$

$a_1=2+3$

$a_1=5$

For $n=2$ ,

$a_2=a_{2-1}+3$

$a_2=a_{1}+3$

$a_2=5+3$

$a_2=8$

For $n=3$ ,

$a_3=a_{3-1}+3$

$a_3=a_{2}+3$

$a_3=8+3$

$a_3=11$

Therefore, $a_1=5,a_2=8,a_3=11$ .
