Q. Use the initial term and the recursive formula to find an explicit formula for the sequence a. Write your answer in simplest form. a=43a=a+3a= ______
Initial Term Given: The initial term of the sequence is given as a=43. This is the first term of the sequence, often denoted as a1.
Recursive Formula Explanation: The recursive formula given is a=a+3. This means that each term in the sequence is 3 more than the previous term. However, this recursive formula is not correctly written. It should be an=an−1+3, where an is the nth term and an−1 is the (n−1)th term.
