Answer:
- 5, 2, 9, 16 and d = + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
to obtain the first four terms substitute n = 2, 3, 4 into the recursive formula
f(1) = - 5 ← given
f(2) = f(1) + 7 = - 5 + 7 = 2
f(3) = f(2) + 7 = 2 + 7 = 9
f(4) = f(3) + 7 = 9 + 7 = 16
common difference d = 16 - 9 = 9 - 2 = 2 - (- 5) = 7
Number 3 i would say i think it is
(-4, 6), (0, 2), (4, -2) are all ordered pairs that have the sum as 2.
-4+6 is the same thing as 6-4 if there's more positive than negative
0+2=2 because 0 plus a number equals to that number
4-2=2 because you're adding a negative number with the positive number together to get the answer
Just be aware that I might not make any sense at all
