The video tutorial explains how to find the first seven terms of a sequence using a recursive formula, specifically focusing on the Fibonacci sequence. It demonstrates the calculation of these terms and highlights the significance of Fibonacci numbers in nature, such as in flowers and pinecones. Additionally, the video explores the relationship between Fibonacci numbers and the golden spiral, encouraging further exploration of the sequence.

What is the recursive formula for the Fibonacci sequence?

• A(n) = A(n-1) - A(n-2)

• A(n) = A(n-1) * A(n-2)

• A(n) = A(n-1) + A(n-2)

• A(n) = A(n-1) / A(n-2)

What is the significance of the Fibonacci sequence in nature?

• It determines the color of flowers

• It appears in the number of petals and spirals

• It dictates the height of trees

• It controls the growth rate of plants
