The explicit formula for the given sequence is a(n) = 1 + 4(n - 1).

What is termed as recursive definition?

A recursive function is one that iterates or uses its very own previous term to determine subsequent terms, resulting in a series of terms.

The recursive formula for an arithmetic sequence is as follows.

a(1)  = 1 and a(n) = a(n - 1) + 4.

Remember that this formula provides us with two types of data.

  • 1 is the first term.
  • Add 4 to obtain any term out of its previous term. To put it another way, this same common difference is 4.

Let's look for a formal formula again for sequence.

  1. Remember that we can use the standard explicit form to represent a sequence in which the first term is A & common difference is B:   A + B(n - 1).
  2. As a result, the sequence's explicit formula is a(n) = 1 + 4(n - 1).

Thus, by the use of recursive definition, the explicit formula for the sequence is a(n) = 1 + 4(n - 1).
