Ok so I need help to figure out if an formula is recursive, explicit, or neither. I dont want the answer, just help to solve the problem. Problem: F(n+1)=f(n)+6.5, f(1)=0

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

recursive means the function relies on a prev output ---> g(x) = g(x-1) + 8 explicit means the function solely relies on a number input --> g(x) = x + 8

So then that means that the formula is neither a explicit, or recursive formula?
