A sequence \( \left( a_n \right)_{n=1}^{\infty} \) is defined by the recursive formula: \( a_1=1;\ a_{n+1}=-2a_n\text{, }n\in\mathbb{N} \).
What is its third term?
A sequence \( \left(a_n\right)_{n=1}^{\infty} \) is defined by the recursive formula \( a_1=1\text{, }a_2=2;\ a_{n+2} = \frac12\left(a_{n+1}+a_n\right)\text{, }n\in\mathbb{N} \).
What are its first five terms?
A sequence \( \left( a_n \right)_{n=1}^{\infty} \) is defined by the recursive formula \( a_1=1;\ a_{n+1}=\frac1{1+a_n}\text{, }n\in\mathbb{N} \).
What are its first five terms?
A sequence \( \left(a_n\right)_{n=1}^{\infty} \) is defined by the recursive formula \( a_1=1;\ a_{n+1} = 3a_n\text{, }n\in\mathbb{N} \).
What are its first five terms?
We are given a sequence \( \left( a_n \right)^{\infty}_{n=1} \) defined recursively by: \( a_1=1,\ a_2=2\,;\ a_{n+2}=\frac12\left( a_{n+1}+a_n\right),\ n\in\mathbb{N} \).
Find the sum of the first four terms of this sequence.
