### Understanding Recursive Sequences#### Problem Statement:Consider the following recursively defined sequence:\[ t_k = t_{k-1} + 3k + 1, \text{ for each integer } k \geq 1 \]\[ t_0 = 0 \]The steps below begin an iterative process to guess an explicit formula for the sequence.\[\begin{align*}t_0 &= 0 \\t_1 &= t_0 + 3 \cdot 1 + 1 = 3 + 1 \\t_2 &= t_1 + 3 \cdot 2 + 1 = (3 + 1) + 3 \cdot 2 + 1 = 3 + 3 \cdot 2 + 2 \\t_3 &= t_2 + 3 \cdot 3 + 1 = (3 + 3 \cdot 2 + 2) + 3 \cdot 3 + 1 = 3 + 3 \cdot 2 + 3 \cdot 3 + 3 \end{align*}\]Continue the iteration process in a free response. Then guess a formula for \( t_n \) as a summation written in expanded form, and use Theorem 5.2.1 to write it as a single fraction whose denominator is 2.

For \( t_0 \), the value is 0 by definition.2. For \( t_1 \), we use \( t_0 + 3 \cdot 1 + 1 \), simplifying to 4.3. For \( t_2 \), we use \( t_1 + 3 \cdot 2 + 1 \), which simplifies to 3 + 2(3) + 2, etc.### Further Steps:1. **Continue Iterating**: Continue this process for subsequent values of \( t_k \) to confirm the emerging pattern.2. **Guessing a Formula**: Based on the patterns observed, propose a general formula for \( t_n \).3. **Verification**: Use summation notation and properties provided by mathematical theorems (like Theorem
