Answer:

[tex]A_1 = 12[/tex]

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A_n =12+(n-1)3[/tex]

Required

Write as recursive

We have:

[tex]A_n =12+(n-1)3[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]A_n =12+3n-3[/tex]

[tex]A_n =12-3+3n[/tex]

[tex]A_n =9+3n[/tex]

Calculate few terms

[tex]A_1 =9+3*1 = 9 + 3 = 12[/tex]

[tex]A_2 =9+3*2 = 9 + 6 = 15[/tex]

[tex]A_3 =9+3*3 = 9 + 9 = 18[/tex]

The above shows that the rule is to add 3.

So, we have:

[tex]A_1 = 12[/tex]

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + 3[/tex]
