Full solution

Q. Find the first four terms of the sequence defined below, where nn represents the position of a term in the sequence. Start with n=1n = 1.\newline10n210n - 2\newline_____, _____, _____, _____
  1. Plug in n=1n = 1: For n=1n = 1, plug it into the formula: 10(1)2=102=810(1) − 2 = 10 − 2 = 8.
  2. Plug in n=2n = 2: For n=2n = 2, plug it into the formula: 10(2)2=202=1810(2) − 2 = 20 − 2 = 18.
  3. Plug in n=3n = 3: For n=3n = 3, plug it into the formula: 10(3)2=302=2810(3) − 2 = 30 − 2 = 28.
  4. Plug in n=4n = 4: For n=4n = 4, plug it into the formula: 10(4)2=402=3810(4) − 2 = 40 − 2 = 38.
