Applying the recursive formula to a sequence to determine the first five terms

The video tutorial introduces the concept of a recursive formula, contrasting it with previous sequence rules. It explains how recursive formulas rely on previous terms to find subsequent terms. The instructor demonstrates calculating the first five terms using a recursive formula, emphasizing the importance of knowing the previous term's value. The lesson concludes with a brief Q&A session.
