Question

Help! What is the difference between recursive and explicit formulas for sequences and series'?

Answer 1

recursive sequence is a a sequence where you use previous terms to define a term
example: a(n)=5+a(n-2)
explicit sequence is when the term is not defined in terms of previous terms
example: a(n)=5+2n
