The equivalent expression -
4n + 19
The first term, a, is 2. The common ratio, r, is 4. Thus,
a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).
Check: What's the first term? Let n=1. Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8. Is that correct? No.
Try this instead:
a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1). Is this correct? Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2? 2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2. YES.
The desired explicit formula is a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.
Here I'll Simplify it to show the work.
You need PEMDAS
9(2*2+4÷2)
9(4+4÷2)
9(8÷2)
9(4)
9(4) = 9 × 4 = 36
The Answer is 36.
