Question 864422: The recursive formula for the term of a particular sequence is given by An=A(n-1)+3 where A1=2. Find the nth term formula for this sequence that does not depend on A(n-1). Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! An=A(n-1)+3
which means
next term = last term plus 3
An = a + (n - 1)d
An = 2 + 3(n - 1)
An=3n-3+2
An=3n-1
