4n+4

what are the first five terms

The first five terms are;

8, 12, 16, 20 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the first five terms we will simply substitute n = 1, n=2, n=3, n=4 and n=5

into the expression : 4n+4

Substituting for n=1

4n + 4 = 4 (1) + 4=4+4=8

substituting for n=2

4n+4 = 4 (2) + 4 = 8+4 = 12

Substituting for n=3

4n + 4 = 4 (3) + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16

substituting for n=4

4n + 4 = 4 (4) + 4 = 16+4 = 20

substituting for n=5

4n + 4 = 4 (5) + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24

Therefore, the first five terms are;

8, 12, 16, 20 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation stated above sub in 1,2,3 and 4 and 5 as n

1st term: (4*1) + 4=8

2nd term: (4*2) + 4=12

3rd term: (4*3) + 4=16

4th term: (4*4) + 4=20

5th term: (4*5) + 4=24
