Question

Value of the pronumeral and describe the rule.4,1,-2,p,-8,-11​

Answer 1

Answer:

p = -5

every element in the sequence is created by subtracting 3 from the pervious element.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure you put every necessary information here.

but I'd the visible information is truly everything, then it's is trivial.

the difference between 4 and 1 is ... well, -3. meaning we subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.

we suspect this is the rule and keep trying.

1 -3 = -2

hey it works.

and -8 -3 = -11

hey, also correct.

and the difference between -2 and -8 is -6, and when we place another item in between (p), we cut that in half again to -3. so, it is all consistent.

therefore,

p = -2 -3 = -5

the rule is

an = an-1 - 3
