Using the recursive formula to find the first four terms of a sequence

👉 Learn all about recursive sequences. Recursive form is a way of expressing sequences apart from the explicit form. In the recursive form of defining sequences, each term of a sequence is expressed in terms of the preceding term unlike in the explicit form where each term is expressed in terms of the first term.

The general form of the recursive arithmetic sequence is given by A_(k+1) = A_k + d, where A_(k+1) is the next term of the sequence, A_k is the current term and d is the common difference. The general form of the recursive geometric sequence is given by A_(k+1) = (A_k)r, where A_(k+1) is the next term of the sequence, A_k is the current term and r is the common ratio.

In the recursive form of sequence, it is usually very important to indicate an initial value for the sequence.

Dude, honestly you're the best man. My teacher and Khan Academy don't use the examples I need to help understand this, but you do it and it's SO much easier! Thanks :)

[arterberryml]

Finally getting my Algebra homework done thanks to you! Now it seems more simple, thank you!

[zemotika]

Still helping people 9 years later with these vids!! Very grateful! I forgot a lot of sequence and summation notation and we’re reviewing now for calc 2 your video helped me a lot!

[czr]

Thanks so much! You saved my grades and my life. Your explanation was so much more simple than my IM1 math teacher. Lol I see that "Duh Hello!" on the white board.

[angelawashington]

this was great! Easy. simple and str8 to the point! This what most people don't necessarily provide, which is the reason something is the way it is and how do we go about tackling these recursive problems

[liscan]

Yo damn, thanks for explaining.Some tutorials do it so quickly that i end up dumbfounded.Thank you for this

[jangofett]

Wow this helped a lot when my one virtual teacher let a different one take over for a couple lessons and only did the most basic version, he showed us how to write not how to use. Thank you so much even though I am a bit late!

Tysm man needed this for a test and I didn't understand how it was explained to me the first time.

[Vjacquelyn]

im so glad you continue posting, never stop you really are a great help, thank you. 

[haque]

your amazing i got stuck on this for a whole day

[sirwingman]

this helps sooo much! as soon as you explained it it was so clear to me!

[austinsinclair]

I enjoy your videos, and you are able to explain math well. keep up the great work!

[zoiezoldak]

thank you so much, my teacher doesn’t teach me so this really helps :)

[seerunaqvi]

I am so glad I clicked on this video ❤🥰

[brandonlizardo]

Thank you for making such easy to understand videos, the deadline of my modules is today and I'll be able to pass it on time😅

[boothills_devotee]

wow, u seem like an awesome math teacher. wish mine was like this too

[Maya-murv]

Life saver!! Your the best thank you so much ☺️.

[marlyl]

thank you so much. YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER

[losDbrikashaw]

Thank you! Had to use this on a take home quiz. Really helped!

[baekhonews]

One minute of this dude can replace my entire day of my teacher
