<em>Additional comment</em>
Of course, if the next term is 0.5 more than the last, then the previous term is 0.5 less than the present one. The sequence can be described in this "backward" fashion by the recursive relation of choice A. While that <em>does work</em> to describe the sequence, it is usually <em>not</em> the form we desire for a recursive relation.
