Consider the sequence: 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26, write a recursive definition.

a a n = 2 ⋅ a n − 1 − 5 a n = 2 ⋅ a n − 1 − 5

b a n = 3 ⋅ a n − 1 a n = 3 ⋅ a n − 1

c a n = 3 + a n − 1 a n = 3 + a n − 1

d a_n=8+3 an-1}

The first term is 8, so

Each time we want a new term, we add on 3

8+3 = 11

11+3 = 14

14+3 = 17

17+3 = 20

23+3 = 26

and so on

This recursive step of adding on 3 to the prior term is written as this: which says "to get the nth term, add 3 to the term just before the nth term"

Based on what you posted for your answer choices, the final answer is likely choice C. However it seems some weird typo happened.

answer: a and b

step-by-step explanation:

c) the median for town a 30" is greater than the median for town b 25"

step-by-step explanation:

town a, median = q2 = 30

town b, median - q2 = 25

so the median for town a 30" is greater than the median for town b 25"
