The given rule means that, after the first term of the sequence, every term f(n) is the difference between the previous term f(n-1) and 4.
8, 4, 0, and - 4
We are asked to write the first 4 terms of a sequence, given a recursive rule. f(1)&=8 f(n)&=f(n-1)-4, for n>1 To do so, we will use a table.
Therefore, the first 4 terms of the sequence are 8, 4, 0, and - 4.
