Each term is the sum of the 2 preceding terms; where the first 2 terms are 1 and 1.

So 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 etc.

How do you calculate the explicit formula and the nth term of a Fibonacci sequence?

Good Question! After 6 years of math classes in college, and 30+ years of teaching (during which I took many summer classes) I've never seen an explicit formula for the nth term of the Fibonacci sequence. Study more math and maybe you can discover the explicit formula that you want.


What is the difference between an explicit rule and a recursive rule?

An explicit rule defines the terms of a sequence in terms of some independent parameter. A recursive rule defines them in relation to values of the variable at some earlier stage(s) in the sequence.
