Which is a *recursive rule* for the nth term in the sequence 15, 8, 1, ...?
a1=15, an=an−1−7
an=15−7(n−1)
a1=−7, an=an−1+15
an=−7+15(n−1)
What is a formula for the nth term in the sequence -4, -9, -14, ...?
an=−4−5(n−1)
an=an−1+5
an=−5−4(n−1)
an=−4+5(n−1)
What is a formula for the nth term in the sequence 12, 20, 28, ...?
an=20+8(n−1)
an=−4+8(n+1)
an=12+8(n−1)
an=12(8)n
an = an-1 + 5
a1 = -16

Given the sequence:
125, 25, 5, ....
Write the rule an using the geometric sequence formula:
an = (125)(1/5)(n-1)
an = 625(1/5)(n-1)
an = 625(5)(n-1)
an = 125 + 5n
