Arithmetic Sequences Recursive

Write the recursive formula for 6, 17, 28, 39, 50....

• a_n=a_n-1+11
  a₁=6

• a_n=a_n-1-4
  a₁=6

• a_n=a_n-1+9
  a₁=6

• a_n=a_n-1+6
  a₁=6

Write the recursive formula for the following sequence?
6, 4, 2, 0, . . .

• a_n = -2n + 8

• a₁ =6, a_n = a_n - 1 - 2

• a₁ = 6, a_n = a_n-1 + 2

• a₁ = 6, a_n = a_n-1 - 2

Given the recursive formula, find the first four terms:
a_n = a_n-1 + 5
a₁ = -16

• -16, -21, -26, -31

• 5, -11, -27, -43

• -16, -80, -500, -200

• -16, -11, -6, -1

Given      t(n+1) = t(n) - 3 
and          t(1) = 6,
is this sequence also arithmetic or geometric or neither?

• arithmetic

• geometric

• neither

• Pick this one...if you like getting answers wrong

Given the recursive formula below, find the first five terms.  
u₁ = 3
u_n = u_n-1 + 2
where n ≥ 2

• 3, 5, 7, 9, 11

• 5, 7, 9, 11, 13

Write a recursive rule for the sequence 17, 1, -15, -31 . . .

• a_n = a_n-1 + 16

• a_n = a_n-1 - 17

• a_n = a_n-1 - 15

• a_n = a_n-1 - 16

Determine the 3rd term of the sequence.

a_n= 2a_n-1 - 1

• 14

• 13

• 17

• 16

Write a recursive formula for the following sequence: 10, 5, 0, -5,...

• a₁= 10

  a_n= a_n-1 - 5

• a₁= 10

  a_n= a_n-1 + 5

• a₁= 10

  a_n= a_n (5)

• a₁= 10

  a_n= a_n-1 (5)
