Answer:

c(1) = -15

c(n) = c(n - 1) + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given arithmetic sequence is,

-15, -11, -7, -3...........

Common difference between each successive and previous term is,

d = -11 - (-15)

  = -11 + 15

  = 4

Since recursive formula of the arithmetic sequence is represented by,

a₁ = First term of the sequence

a(n) = a(n - 1) + d

where a(n) is the nth term and a(n-1) is the previous term of the nth term.

Form the given sequence,

c₁ = -15

c(n) = c(n - 1) + 4
