Given:
and
where
.
To find:
The explicit formula for the given recursive formula.
Solution:
We know that recursive formula of an AP is:

Where, d is the common difference.
We have,

Here, d=9.
The first term of the AP is
.
The explicit formula for an AP is:

Substituting
and
, we get



Therefore, the required explicit formula for the given sequence is
.
Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions, then find the LCD and combine.
