Q. Which recursive formula can be used to define this sequence for

n > 1

\newline

11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, \ldots

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)

a_n = 1a_{n-1}

\newline

(B)

a_n = \frac{12}{11}a_{n-1}

\newline

(C)

a_n = a_{n-1} + 1

\newline

(D)

a_n = a_{n-1} - 1

Sequence Type: We have the sequence: $11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, \ldots$ $\newline$ Is the given sequence geometric or arithmetic? $\newline$ The difference between consecutive terms is the same. $\newline$ The given sequence is arithmetic.
Find Common Difference: $11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, \ldots$ $\newline$ Find the common difference, $d$ . $\newline$ Two consecutive terms are $11$ and $12$ . $\newline$ $12 - 11 = 1$ $\newline$ Common difference $(d)$ is $1$ .
Recursive Formula: $11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, \ldots$ $\newline$ Identify the recursive formula for the given sequence. $\newline$ Substitute $1$ for $d$ in $a_n = a_{n-1} + d$ . $\newline$ Recursive formula: $a_n = a_{n-1} + 1$
