Question

A city sets up 14 rows of chairs for an outdoor concert. Each row has 2 more rows than the row in front of it. Write a recursive formula to represent the number of chairs in the nth row.

hintHint:

  • A sequence is said to be arithmetic if the common difference is always constant.
  • The General formula of any AP is a subscript n equals a subscript 1 plus left parenthesis n minus 1 right parenthesis d.

The correct answer is: a_n=a_(n-1)+2.


    • A city sets up 14 rows of chairs for an outdoor concert. Each row has 2 more rows than the row in front of it
    • We have to find the recursive formula to represent the number of chairs in the nth row.
    Step 1 of 1:
    Here it will be an AP, with common difference 2.
    So, The recursive formula will be
