1. 6, 11, 16, 21, 26

2. a₁ = 14, aₙ = aₙ₋₁ - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First 5 terms

        aₙ = 5n + 1

n = 1: a₁ = 5 × 1 + 1 =   6 + 1  =   6

n = 2: a₂ = 5 × 2 + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11

n = 3: a₃ = 5 × 3 + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16

n = 4: a₄ = 5 × 4 + 1 = 20 + 1 = 21

n = 5: a₅= 5 × 5 + 1 = 25 + 1 = 26

The first five terms of the sequence are

6, 11, 16, 21, 26

2. Recursive definition

a₁ = 14

a₂ = 10

a₃ =  6

a₄ =  2

Each term (aₙ) is four units less than the preceding term (aₙ₋₁)

The recursive definition is

a₁ = 14, aₙ = aₙ₋₁ - 4

-2

7 - 9 = -2

reversed:

-2 + 9 = 7
