write each sum using summation notation.
Q1) 2 + 5 + 8 + 11 + ... + 29
Q2) 6 - 12 + 24 - 48 + ...

find the first 4 terms and the 8th term of the recursively-defined sequence.
Q1) c1 = 2, c2 = -1, and ck+2 = ck + ck+1 for k>0

Hi,
General Summation Notation :
{2 + 5 + 8 + 11 + ... + 29} Arithemetic, d = 3

{6 - 12 + 24 - 48 + ...} Geometric, r = (-2)

= 2, = -1, and c[k+2] = + c[k+1] for k>0
{ 2, -1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3 } previous two terms added to get the next
