If (a_1=5) and (a_{n+1}=a_n+8n-3), what is (a_4)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 44

Apply the recursive rule successively for n=1, 2, and 3: a_2=5+(8×1-3)=10, a_3=10+(8×2-3)=23, and a_4=23+(8×3-3)=44. Therefore, the correct answer is 44. A value such as 41 results from using an incorrect increment at one of the steps. Exam tip: to find a_4, apply the rule step by step from n=1 to n=3.
