A sequence is defined recursively as follows: s1 0.7 and sn (sn1) 2 for n 2. (a) Compute the first six terms of this sequence. (Use a calculator; for the answers, round to five decimal places.) What do you observe about the answers? (b) Use a calculator to compute s10. (Report the answer as shown on your calculator screen.) (c) In view of your work in parts (a) and (b), what number do you think would be a very close approximation to s100?
