Question

Find the first three terms of the series represented by the formula 3(- 2)(n - 1).

Answer 1

Answer:

0, - 6, - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the first 3 terms, substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the formula

a₁ = 3(- 2)(1 - 1) = 3 × - 2 × 0 = 0

a₂ = 3(- 2)(2 - 1) = 3 × - 2 × 1 = - 6

a₃ = 3(- 2)(3 - 1) = 3 × - 2 × 2 = - 12

First 3 terms are 0, - 6, - 12
