Consider the sequence −8, −4, 0, 4, 8, 12, ellipsis. select true or false for each statement. a recursive rule for the sequence is f(1) = −8; f(n) = −4 (n − 1) for all n ≥ 2. a true b false an explicit rule for the sequence is f(n) = −8 + 4 (n − 1). a true b false the tenth term is 28.

A recursive rule for the sequence is f(1) = -8; f(n) = -4 (n – 1) for all n ≥ 2 is "FALSE"

An explicit rule for the sequence is f(n) = -8 + 4 (n – 1) is "TRUE"

The tenth term is 28 is "TRUE"

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement (1)

While the first part [f(1) = –8] is TRUE, the second part [f(n) = –4 (n – 1) for all n ≥ 2] would only be true if the sequence ends at the second term.

Check: Since the fifth term of the sequence is 8, then f(5) = 8

From the statement,

f(5) = –4 (5 – 1)

f(5) = –4 × 4 = –16

:. f(5) ≠ 8

Statement (2)

f(n) = –8 + 4 (n – 1) is TRUE

Check: The fifth term of the sequence is 8 [f(5) = 8]

From the statement,

f(5) = –8 + 4 (5 – 1)

f(5) = –8 + 4 (4)

f(5) = –8 + 16 = 8

:. f(5) = 8

Statement (3)

f(10) = 28 is TRUE

Since the explicit rule is TRUE, use to confirm if f(10) = 28:

f(10) = –8 + 4 (10 – 1)

f(10) = –8 + 4 (9)

f(10) = –8 + 36

f(10) = 28

:. f(10) = 28

yes
