Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is :

an =a1+(n-1)d   ....a common difference is : d    and the first term is a1

in this exercice : an=12−5(n−1)    a1 = 12 and  d= -5

a30 =  12-5(30-1) =12-5×29 = 12-145 = - 133

The 30th term is -133.

What Are Recursive Formulas?

A recursive function is a function that defines each term of a sequence using a previous term that is known, i.e. where the next term is dependent on one or more known previous term(s). A recursive function h(x) can be written as:

h(x) = a0 h(0) + a1h(1) + ....... + ax-1 h(x-1) where ai ≥ 0 and at least one of the ai > 0

A recursive formula refers to a formula that defines each term of a sequence using the preceding term(s). The recursive formulas define the following parameters:

  • The first term of the sequence
  • The pattern rule to get any term from its previous term

Given:

an=12−5(n−1)

a1= 12- 5(0)= 12

a2= 12-5(2-1) = 12-5 = 7

a3= 12-5(3-1)= 12-5(2)= 12-10= 2

....

a30= 12-5(30-1)

a30= 12-5(29)

a30= 12-145

a30= -133
