Question 508968: tn= 2t n-1+5 and t=3
Find the next four terms given the recursive definition
t2=?
t3=?
t4=?

Thank you for helping on the previous problem, but I am having trouble understanding this one. Do you just replace 2t with 2x3. Would the formula equal tn= 2x3(n-1)+5?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
t(n) = 2*t(n-1)+5 and t(1) = 3
Find the next four terms given the recursive definition
t(1) = 3
t(2) = 2*3+5 = 11
t(3) = 2*11+5 = 27
t(4) = 2*27+5 = 59
