Sebastian writes the recursive formula f(x+1) = 4f(x) to represent a geometric sequence whose second term is 12.

which explicit formula can be used to model the same sequence?

f(x) = 12(4)x
f(x) = 3(4)x − 1
f(x) = 4(12)x
f(x) = 4(3)x − 1

Hence, the explicit formula that can be used to model the same sequence is:

The recursive formula is given as:

f(x+1) = 4f(x).

Also the second term of the geometric sequence is given as:

f(2)=12

Hence,

f(1)=12/4=3

Similarly,

Hence, the explicit formula that can be used to model the same sequence is:

none cuz there are no "following statements" regarding the question
