Here, we have :
an = 3n + 3n
We have to find a1, a2, a3, a4.
So, putting n = 1, we get
a1 = 3(1) + 3(1)
a1 = 3 + 3
a1 = 6
now, n= 2
a2 = 3(2) + 3(2)
a2 = 6 + 6
a2 = 12
now, putting n = 3
a3 = 3(3) + 3(3)
a3 = 9 + 9
a3 =18
now, for n =4
a4 = 3(4) + 3(4)
a4 = 12 +12
a4 =24
Thus, first four terms of the sequence an = 3n + 3n are 6,12, 18, 24.
