Answer :

Explicit rule is

[tex]a_n=49(3)^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive rule for a geometric sequence is a1=49;an=3an−1

First term a1= 49

[tex]a_2= 3 * a_1= 3*49= 147[/tex]

[tex]a_2= 3 * a_2= 3*147= 441[/tex]

To get second term, multiply the first term by 3

So common ratio = 3

Explicit rule for geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]

Where a1 is the first term

r is the common ratio

a1= 49  and r= 3

[tex]a_n=49(3)^{n-1}[/tex]
