4, -1236, -108 is not a geometric system.
There are infinitely many polynomials of order 4 that will give these as the first four numbers and any one of these could be "the" explicit formula. There are also non-polynomial solutions. Short of reading the mind of the person who posed the question, there is no way of determining which of the infinitely many solutions is the "correct" one. For example, t(n) = (-17*n^4 + 170*n^3 - 575*n^2 + 830*n - 400)/4 for n = 1, 2, 3, ... The Simplest, though is t(n) = 5*n^2 - 5*n + 2 for n = 1, 2, 3, ...

In linear algebra, Cramer's rule is an explicit formula for the solution of a system of linear equations with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution.
The formula used to find the 99th term in a sequence is a^n = a^1 + (n-1)d. a^1 is the first term, n is the term number we wish to find, and d is the common difference. In order to find d, the pattern in the sequence must be determined. If the sequence begins 1,4,7,10..., then d=3 because there is a difference of 3 between each number. d can be quite simple or more complicated as it can be a function or formula in of itself. However, in the example, a^1=1, n=99, and d=3. The formula then reads a^99 = 1 + (99-1)3. Therefore, a^99 = 295.
The explicit formula for a sequence is a formula that allows you to find the nth term of the sequence directly without having to find all the preceding terms. To find the explicit formula for a sequence, you need to identify the pattern or rule that governs the sequence. This can involve looking at the differences between consecutive terms, the ratios of consecutive terms, or any other mathematical relationship that exists within the sequence. Once you have identified the pattern, you can use it to create a formula that will generate any term in the sequence based on its position (n) in the sequence.
The answer depends on what the explicit rule is!

In order to answer the question is is necessary to know what the explicit formula was. But, since you have not bothered to provide that information, the answer is .
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.
The explicit formula here is 5+ 6x. solved at x=25 you get 155

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by an = a1 + (n-1)d, where a1 is the first term and d is the common difference. In this case, the first term a1 is 16, and the common difference d is 4. Therefore, the explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence is an = 16 + 4(n-1) = 4n + 12.
One single number, such as 634413087 does not define a sequence.
Assuming each term is 3 MORE than the previous term t(n) = -13 + 3*n where n = 1, 2, 3, ...
It is often possible to find an explicit formula that gives the same answer as a given recursive formula - and vice versa. I don't think you can always find an explicit formula that gives the same answer.
