First term (a1) is -1
recursive formula goes like this

is the nth term

is the term before that
we normally have

we see each term is multipying by -3 to get next one
so that would be

where a1=-1
the 3rd option is correct except that it is the explicit formula
so answer is 2nd one
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the regresssion line be linear because of a constant amount of money coming in. Let y be the total amount of money in the box and x the weeks of adding to the box:

We know that he puts $20 in the box from his birthday and $4 every week for x weeks. Therefore the total amount of money will be:

21 and -4, because -4x21 = -84, and 21+-4 (– 4) = 17
