Q. Find the first five terms of the sequence defined below, where n represents the position of a term in the sequence. Start with n=1.−7n+10_____, _____, _____, _____, _____
Find First Term: To find the first term, plug in n=1 into the formula: –7(1)+10.Calculation: –7×1+10=–7+10=3.
Calculate Second Term: For the second term, plug in n=2: –7(2)+10.Calculation: –7×2+10=–14+10=–4.
Determine Third Term: For the third term, plug in n=3: –7(3)+10.Calculation: –7×3+10=–21+10=–11.
Compute Fourth Term: Now, for the fourth term, plug in n=4: –7(4)+10.Calculation: –7×4+10=–28+10=–18.
Find Fifth Term: Finally, for the fifth term, plug in n=5: –7(5)+10.Calculation: –7×5+10=–35+10=–25.
