At n = 2
a₂ = (-1)² + 3a₂₋₁ + 2
a₂ = 1 + 3a₁ + 2
a₂ = 1 + (3)(5) + 2
a₂ = 18

At n = 3
a₃ = (-1)³ + 3a₃₋₁ + 2
a₃ = -1 + 3a₂ + 2
a₃ = -1 + (3)(18) + 2
a₃ = 55

At n = 4
a₄ = (-1)⁴ + 3a₄₋₁ + 2
a₄ = 1 + 3a₃ + 2
a₄ = 1 + (3)(55) + 2
a₄ = 168

The first four terms are 5, 18, 55, 168

Need help, not really understanding this :)
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

d. y-3 = f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

we don't know what f(x) is. but we can see that the red line is 3 units above the black line. so we are adding 3 to whatever f(x) is. so the red line should have the equation

y = f(x) +3

subtract 3 from both sides

y-3 = f(x)
