Transcribed Image Text:### Problem Statement
**3. Find explicit formulas for each of the following sequences:**
**(a)** The sequence is defined by the relation \( a_n = 4 + 3a_{n-1} \), where the initial term \( a_0 = 6 \).
---
**Explanation:**
In this problem, you are asked to find an explicit formula for a sequence that is initially defined by a recurrence relation.
- The recurrence relation \( a_n = 4 + 3a_{n-1} \) describes how each term in the sequence is generated based on the previous term.
- The initial term \( a_0 = 6 \) is given, which is necessary to start generating the sequence.
The task is to derive a formula that directly computes the \( n \)-th term \( a_n \) without relying on previous terms.
