Find the first three terms of the sequence defined below, where n represents the position of a term in the sequence. Start with n = 1. - 2n - 10

The first three if the sequence defined are - 11, - 13 and - 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the nth term of the sequence is given as n = - 2n - 10

So, For n = 1 : the first term = - 2 (1) - 10

= - 2 - 10 = - 12

For n = 2 : the second term = - 2 (2) - 10

= - 4 - 10 = - 14

For n = 3 : the third term = - 2 (3) - 10

= - 6 - 10 = - 16

Hence, the first three if the sequence defined are - 12, - 14 and - 16.
