The first four terms of a sequence are shown below:
7,4, 1, -2
Which of the following functions best defines this sequence?
Of(1) = 7, f(n + 1) = f(n) + 3; for nx 1
O f(1) = 7, f(n + 1) = f(n) - 3; for nx 1
O f(1) = 7, f(n + 1) = f(n) – 4; for n 2 1
Of(1) = 7, f(n + 1) = f(n) + 4; for n > 1

Answer :

Answer:

second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

7, 4, 1, - 2

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms, that is

d = 4 - 7 = 1 - 4 = - 2 - 1 = - 3

Thus to obtain any term in the sequence from the previous term, subtract 3

Thus

f(1) = 7 , f(n + 1) = f(n) - 3 for n ≥ 1
