Answer:
3, - 2, - 7, - 12, - 17, - 22
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the first 6 terms substitute n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 into the formula, that is
t(1 + 1) = t(1) - 5 ⇒ t(2) = 3 - 5 = - 2
t(2 + 1) = t(2) - 5 ⇒ t(3) = - 2 - 5 = - 7
t(3 + 1) = t(3) - 5 ⇒ t(4) = - 7 - 5 = - 12
t(4 + 1) = t(4) - 5 ⇒ t(5) = - 12 - 5 = - 17
t(5 + 1) = t(5) - 5 ⇒ t(6) = - 17 - 5 = - 22
