The first four terms of sequence is 20, -10, -40, -70

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to find the first four terms of sequence

<em><u>Given recursive formula is:</u></em>

a_n = 20 - 30(n-1)

<em><u>To find the first term, substitute n = 1</u></em>

a_1 = 20-30(1-1)\\\\a_1 = 20-30(0)\\\\a_1 = 20

Thus the first term of sequence is 20

<em><u>To find the second term, substitute n = 2</u></em>

a_2 = 20-30(2-1)\\\\a_2 = 20-30(1)\\\\a_2 = 20-30\\\\a_2 = -10

Thus the second term of sequence is -10

<em><u>To find the third term, substitute n = 3</u></em>

a_3 = 20-30(3-1)\\\\a_3 = 20-30(2)\\\\a_3 = 20-60\\\\a_3 = -40

Thus the third term of sequence is -40

<em><u>To find the fourth term, substitute n = 4</u></em>

a_4 = 20-30(4-1)\\\\a_4 = 20-30(3)\\\\a_4 = 20-90\\\\a_4 = -70

Thus the first four terms of sequence is 20, -10, -40, -70

Solve for x. -5x + 13 = -17
Lana71 [14]

Subtract 13 from both sides

-5x = -17 - 13

Simplify -17 - 13 to -30

-5x = -30

Divide both sides by -5

x = -30/-5

Two negatives make a positive

x = 30/5

Simplify 30/5 to 6

<u>x = 6</u>
