First, we need to see what 1/5 of a minute is.
60÷5=12
So, there's 3/4 of a gallon every 12 seconds. We need to multiply 3/4 by 5 to find every minute.
3/4×5=15/4=3 3/4
.But, you can tell that he multiplied 3/4 by 1/5, which is not right since you're suppose to do it by 5. But the answer is 3 1/2 gallon per minute.

Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your recursive formula is ...

  a_1=2\\a_n=a_{n-1}^2-2

Using this to find a4, we get ...

  a_2=a_1^2-2=2^2-2=2\\a_3=a_2^2-2=2^2-2=2\\a_4=a_3^2-2=2^2-2=2\\\\\boxed{a_4=2}
