What is the explicit formula for this geometric sequence with recursive formula
Nonamiya [84]

C

generate the first few terms using the recursive formula

a_{2} = - 7 × \frac{1}{3} = - \frac{7}{3}

a_{3} = - \frac{7}{3} × \frac{1}{3} = - \frac{7}{9}

a_{4} = - \frac{7}{9} × \frac{1}{3} = - \frac{7}{27}

r = a_{2} / a_{1} = \frac{1}{3}


the n th term formula (explicit ) for a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a_{1}r^{n-1} = - 7(\frac{1}{3})^(n - 1)

Use the binomial theorem to show that 7^n + 2 is divisible by 3, where n is a positive integer.
masha68 [24]

By the binomial theorem,

7^n=(6+1)^n=6^n+n6^{n-1}+\dbinom n26^{n-2}+\cdots+\dbinom n{n-2}6^2+n6^1+1

Each term containing a factor 6 is divisible by 3, since 3 divides 6. The remaining 1 and 2 sum to 3, which is also divisible by 3.
