What are the first three terms of the sequence defined by the recursive function an = an-1-(an-2-4), when a5 =-2 and a6 = 0? -14, 14,- 4
6, 10,8
-2 0,2
2, 8, 10

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.
