To find the first four terms of the sequence represented by the expression n( n - 2 ) - 3, we can substitute the first four values of n into the expression and simplify:
- n = 1: 1(1-2)-3 = -4
- n = 2: 2(2-2)-3 = -3
- n = 3: 3(3-2)-3 = -3
- n = 4: 4(4-2)-3 = 5
Therefore, the first four terms of the sequence are -4, -3, -3, 5, which matches option B. So the answer is B.
What are the first four terms of the sequence represented by the expression n ( n - 2 ) - 3?
A -5 , -2 , 1 , 4
B -4 , -3 , 0 , 5
C -3 , 0 , 3 , 6
D -2 , 0 , 2 , 4
