method 3 and 4 for solving sequences

I am so lost. Method 3 was easy. All you do is go to this website and put the numbers in. www.shodar.org/interactivate/activities/Sequencer
The fourth method is hard. You do a bunch of stuff in your calculator and mr.maks totally lost me. Good thing it's recorded because i'll definitly be going back to watch it again. Our assignment is question 7.

Sequences and Series

We learned was fractals were today and showed us examples of how to solve these problems. There are four ways to solve them but he only showed us two. So, our homework is to try and find the other two methods. The ones that he showed us were on our calculator and the other on excel which seemed to be the easiest.

We did a test review today on matrix modelling. we learned four sections.
Matrix intro Matrix operations
*vocab * +
*naming * -
*calculator *scalar x
*matrix x
2. Matrix multiplication in context
(can you use it to speed up calculations?)
*AVOID "non-sense" CALCULATIONS

3.Transition matricies
*row by square
*"1 sums"
*loopies
*[b] * [a] ^n / [b] * [a] (n+1)

4. Networks
Directed Non-directed
one ---> two way <---->

node, direct route, "at most" "exactly"
[a] vs. [a]^2 vs. [a]^3 ...etc....

Goals

This course my number one goal is to go to as many tutoring classes as possible in order to pass this class with more than a 75. I joined this class a little late so my next goal is to keep myself from getting behind.Next semester I plan to pass all my classes with a 75 or up as well. I would like to finish my online gym work early so i can find a job and work in the afternoons and in the mornings next semester.

Next year i'd like to get into the University of Manitoba and take kinesiology to learn how to be a fitness instructor.

I'd like to get the job as a waitress at Timberland

I want to make my last year in high school a fun and peaceful one with as less drama as possible.

This year one thing i would like to do is to save up some money. Also a life goal would be to make sure i stay fit and healthy.
