• B) \(a _ { 1 } = 20 , a _ { 2 } = 23 , a _ { 3 } = 26 , a _ { 4 } = 29 , a _ { 5 } = 32\)
• C) \(a _ { 1 } = 20 , a _ { 2 } = 5 , a _ { 3 } = \frac { 5 } { 4 } , a _ { 4 } = \frac { 5 } { 16 } , a _ { 5 } = \frac { 5 } { 64 }\)
• D) \(a _ { 1 } = 20 , a _ { 2 } = 8 , a _ { 3 } = 5 , a _ { 4 } = \frac { 17 } { 4 } , a _ { 5 } = \frac { 65 } { 16 }\)
