Answer:
y</= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
9 + 1 = 10
9 + 2 < 10
y = anything < 2
the answer is 40
in
X 1 (+1) 2 (+1) 3 (+1) 4 (+1) 5
Y 4 (+9) 13 (+9) 22 (+9) 31 (+9) 40
Answer:

You gave the explicit form.
Step-by-step explanation:
You gave the explicit form.
The recursive form is giving you a term in terms of previous terms of the sequence.
So the recursive form of a geometric sequence is
and they also give a term of the sequence; like first term is such and such number. All this says is to get a term in the sequence you just multiply previous term by the common ratio.
r is the common ratio and can found by choosing a term and dividing by the term that is right before it.
So here r=-3 since all of these say that it does:
-54/18
18/-6
-6/2
If these quotients didn't match, then it wouldn't be geometric.
Anyways the recursive form for this geometric sequence is

2 + 2 equals to 4
You can do it on the calculator too.
