The video tutorial explains a recursive sequence where each term is the product of the two preceding terms. Starting with initial terms a_0 = 2 and a_1 = 3, the video demonstrates how to calculate subsequent terms a_2, a_3, and a_4. The process involves multiplying the previous two terms to find the next term, resulting in a_4 being equal to 108.

What is the general formula for the nth term in the given recursive 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)
