Given that the first term is LaTeX: t_1=5t 1 = 5, and the recursive definition is LaTeX: t_{n+1}=3\cdot t_nt n + 1 = 3 ⋅ t n, what would be the second term (i.e. LaTeX: t_2t 2)

Respuesta :

Option 4: 15 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]t_1 = 5[/tex]

The recursive formula for given sequence is:

[tex]t_{n+1} = 3.t_n[/tex]

This means that the previous term can be sued to find the next term

So in order to find the 2nd terms i.e. t2

[tex]t_{1+1} = 3.t_1\\t_2 = 3.5\\t_2 = 15[/tex]

The second term is 15

Hence

Option 4: 15 is the right answer
