Use the explicit rule given to write recursive rule for the geometric sequence:
a_n = 20(3)^(n-1)

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
You know the relationship between the explicit rule and the recursive rule for a geometric sequence is ...
[tex]\text{explicit rule: }a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}\\\\\text{recursive rule: }a_n=a_{n-1}\times r,\ \text{$a_1$ is the same}[/tex]
The given explicit rule tells you a1 = 20, r = 3, so you know the recursive rule is the one shown below.
Answer:
Option B
Step-by-step explanation:
A) a1 = 3
a2 = 3×20
an = 3 × 20^(n-1)
B) a1 = 20
a2 = 20×3
an = 20 × 3^(n-1)
C and D are not geometric
