Answer:

f(n)=2X6ⁿ⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁=2

aₙ=6aₙ₋₁ for n≥2

a₂=6a₂₋₁=6a₁=6*2=12

a₃=6a₃₋₁=6a₂=6*12=72

a₄=6a₄₋₁=6a₃=6*72=432

This is a geometric sequence with:

First term, a=2

Common ratio, r= 12/2=6

For a geometric sequence, the nth term is given by:

Uₙ=arⁿ⁻¹

Uₙ=2X6ⁿ⁻¹

Therefore, the explicit formula for the sequence f(n) is given as:

f(n)=2X6ⁿ⁻¹

Answer:

A & D

Step-by-step explanation:

{2, 12, 72, 432, 2,592, . . .}

an = 2(6)n − 1
