Find the first five terms of the sequence given the following recursive formula:

a1 = -3, a2 = -7, and an = an-2 -2an-1 for n greater than or equal to 3.

enter the terms separated by a comma.

The first five terms are;

-3,-7,11,-29,69

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive definition of the sequence is

, and .

When n=3, we obtain;

.

.

.

.

When n=4

.

.

When n=5

.

.

Therefore the first five terms are;

-3,-7,11,-29,69

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice

no this is a nonlinear negative
