I'm going to go over 13-2 Recursive Definitions

An example of recursive definitions(meaning pre-term):
tn-1
tn-2
tn-3
...

ex. Find the 3rd, 4th, and 5th terms given:
t1=7, tn=4tn-1+1
t2=4(7)+1
=29
t3=4(29)+1
=117
t4=4(117)+1
=469
t5=4(469)+1
=1877

ex. Give a recursive def. for
4,7,10,13
tn=tn-1+3
