Solution

To find the first six terms of the sequence defined by f(n)=(2)n+1f(n)=(-2)^{n+1}, we substitute the values of n from 1 to 6 into the function:

  1. For n=1, f(1)=(2)1+1=(2)2=4f(1)=(-2)^{1+1}=(-2)^2=4
  2. For n=2, f(2)=(2)2+1=(2)3=8f(2)=(-2)^{2+1}=(-2)^3=-8
  3. For n=3, f(3)=(2)3+1=(2)4=16f(3)=(-2)^{3+1}=(-2)^4=16
  4. For n=4, f(4)=(2)4+1=(2)5=32f(4)=(-2)^{4+1}=(-2)^5=-32
  5. For n=5, f(5)=(2)5+1=(2)6=64f(5)=(-2)^{5+1}=(-2)^6=64
  6. For n=6, f(6)=(2)6+1=(2)7=128f(6)=(-2)^{6+1}=(-2)^7=-128

So, the first six terms of the sequence are 4, -8, 16, -32, 64, -128.
