What are the first three terms of the sequence represented by the recursive formula an=n^2-an-1 if a5=14 1/4

The equation is given as:

a (n) = n^2 - a (n - 1)

There is already a value given at a (5), which is 141/4

So, we need to know what the value of a (1), a (2) and a (3).

Finding a (1) is hard because it's the start. The only value we have is a (5) = 141/4.

a (1) = 21.25

a (2) = - 18.75

a (3) = 26.25

a (4) = - 11.75

a (5) = 35.25a (6) = 0.75a (7) = 48.25a (8) = 15.75a (9) = 65.25a (10) = 34.75
