Which recursive rule is correct for the sequence (2), (6), (18), (54)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(a_1=2,\; a_n=3a_{n-1}\; (n\geq 2)\)

The correct rule is \(a_1=2\) and \(a_n=3a_{n-1}\), because every term is three times the preceding term: \(2\times3=6\), \(6\times3=18\), and \(18\times3=54\). Option B gives the second term as 6, but its next term would be \(2\times6+2=14\), not 18. Exam tip: when ratios of consecutive terms are equal, check for a multiplicative recursive rule.
