Answer:

No real roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac      ( for the equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0)

Here it is  4^2 - 4*1*8

= `6 - 32

= -16.

This is negative so there are no real roots.

Answer:

an =  3 + 2(an-1),

Substitute n = 2 into the formula

a2 = 3 + 2(a1)

a2 = 3 + 2(6)

a2 = 3+12
