Q. g(n)=25−49(n−1)Complete the recursive formula of g(n).g(1)=g(n)=g(n−1)+
Find g(1): To find the recursive formula for g(n), we first need to determine the value of g(1) by substituting n=1 into the given function.g(1)=25−49(1−1)g(1)=25−49(0)g(1)=25−0g(1)=25
Express in terms of g(n−1): Now that we have g(1), we need to express g(n) in terms of g(n−1). We start by writing the given function for g(n) and g(n−1).g(n)=25−49(n−1)g(n−1)=25−49((n−1)−1)
Simplify g(n−1): Next, we simplify the expression for g(n−1) to find a relationship between g(n) and g(n−1).g(n−1)=25−49(n−1−1)g(n−1)=25−49(n−2)
Find the difference: Now we need to find the difference between g(n) and g(n−1) to determine the recursive part of the formula.Difference = g(n)−g(n−1)Difference = [25−49(n−1)]−[25−49(n−2)]
Simplify the difference: We simplify the difference to find the recursive relationship.Difference = 25−49n+49−25+49n−98Difference = −49
Write the recursive formula: Since the difference between g(n) and g(n−1) is −49, we can write the recursive formula as follows:g(n)=g(n−1)−49
Combine initial condition: Finally, we combine the initial condition g(1)=25 with the recursive relationship to complete the recursive formula.g(1)=25g(n)=g(n−1)−49 for n > 1
