Hannah Frederick · Answer 1

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

TRUE

a_1 = 2

a_n = 2 * (an_1)

if we start with 2, we would get

a_2 = 2 * (a_1) = 2 * (2) = 4

a_3 = 2 * (a_2) = 2 * (4) = 8

a_4 = 2 * (a_3) = 2 * (8) = 16

a_5 = 2 * (a_4) = 2 * (16) = 32

.

.

.

and so on

The sequence a, = 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, ... is the same as the sequence ay = 2,an = 2an-1.true or false

The sequence a, = 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, ... is the same as the sequence ay = 2,

an = 2an-1.
