Given:


To find:
The third term of the sequence.
Solution:
We have,

For n=2, we get


![[\because b(1)=-12]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cbecause%20b%281%29%3D-12%5D)
For n=3, we get


![[\because b(2)=-48]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cbecause%20b%282%29%3D-48%5D)
Therefore, the 3rd term of the sequence is -192.
The answer is subtract 5 from both sides :) by doing this, the equation becomes x= 7-5, isolating the variable (x) hope this helps!! <3
what are the expressions?
please put the expressions so that i can help you! c:
