The explicit rule for a sequence is given. an = 4n − 1 What is the recursive rule for the sequence? A) a1 = 3; an =an − 1 + 4
B) a1 = 3; an = an − 1 − 1
C) a1 = 4; an = an − 1 − 1
D) a1 = −1; an = an − 1 + 4
-
Thank you to anyone who helps!
Note the series is
3, 7, 11, 15.....
So .....the recursive rule is
an = an-1 + 4, a1 = 3 ⇒ first answer
