write a sequence for the rule a-4=b. a+(2-1)=b
To generate a sequence for the rule a - 4 = b, we can start with an initial value for a and then subtract 4 from it to find the corresponding value for b.
Let's take the initial value of a as 0.
According to the rule, a - 4 = b, so when we substitute a = 0 into the equation, we get:
0 - 4 = -4
So, the first term of the sequence is -4.
Now, let's find the second term of the sequence. We'll add 1 to a and subtract 4 from it:
(0 + 1) - 4 = -3
Therefore, the second term is -3.
Let's continue this process to find more terms of the sequence:
(0 + 2) - 4 = -2
(0 + 3) - 4 = -1
(0 + 4) - 4 = 0
(0 + 5) - 4 = 1
Hence, the sequence for the rule a - 4 = b is: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, ...
