Question

Write a rule for the nth term of the sequence 37, 32, 27, 22, ...

Answer 1

37-5n

Answer 2

It would be tn=42 - 5*n where tn is the nth term.

Answer 3

A. a n = -5n + 42
B. a n = -3n + 40
C. a n = 5n + 32
D. a n = 5n - 42

Answer 4

so
A. n = -5n + 42

Answer 5

5n - 42? xD

Answer 6

ah. thank you!

Answer 7

42 - 5n can also be written as -5n + 42

Answer 8

gotcha, thanks :)

Answer 9

Mathematica agrees with Harkirat.\[\text{FindSequenceFunction}[\{37,32,27,22\},n]=42-5 n \]\[\text{Table}[42-5 n,\{n,8\}]=\{37,32,27,22,17,12,7,2\} \]
