Question 1125134
.
<pre>
To get the first term, simply substitute n= 1 into the formula and then calculate


    f(1) = 4*2(1-1) = 4*2*0 = 0.



To get the second term, simply substitute n= 2 into the formula and then calculate


    f(2) = 4*2(2-1) = 4**2*1 = 8.



I leave it to you to do the same for the third and the fourth terms on your own.

There are NOTHING easier than that.

By the way, what you wrote in your post IS NOT a geometric progression.


To show a geometric progression, the formula should be  f(n) = 8*2^(n-1).
