The recursive rule for a sequence is a^n=a^(n-1)+7,where a^1=-15. what is the explicit rule for this sequence?

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

The recursive rule for the sequence is

In general the recursive rule is written as:

This implies that, d=7

The first term of the sequence is

The explicit rule is given by:

We substitute to get;

24

step-by-step explanation:

if it takes 8 pounds to make 12 divide 12 by 8 and you get 1.5, 1.5 x 16 = 24
