Answer:
The Recursive Formula for the sequence is:
; a₁ = 125
Hence, option D is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r'.
The formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence is

where
aₙ is the nth term of the sequence
a₁ is the first term of the sequence
r is the common ratio
We are given the explicit formula for the geometric sequence such as:

comparing with the nth term of the sequence, we get
a₁ = 125
r = 1/5
Recursive Formula:
We already know that
We know that each successive term in the geometric sequence is 'r' times the previous term where 'r' is the common ratio.
i.e.

Thus, substituting r = 1/5
and a₁ = 125.
Therefore, the Recursive Formula for the sequence is:
; a₁ = 125
Hence, option D is correct.
Answer:
a = 6
Explanation:
7a − 17 = 4a + 1
Subtract 4a from both sides
7a − 17 − 4a = 4a + 1 − 4a
3a − 17 = 1
Add 17 to both sides
3a − 17 + 17 = 1 + 17
3a = 18
Divide both sides by 3
3a / 3 = 18 / 3
a = 6
