EXPLANATION

Given the arithmetic sequence -10, -17, -24, -31, ...

First we need to apply the constant difference formula:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Checking wheter the difference is constant:

-17-\mleft(-10\mright)=-7,\: \quad \: -24-\mleft(-17\mright)=-7,\: \quad \: -31-\mleft(-24\mright)=-7\mathrm{The\: difference\: between\: all\: of\: the\: adjacent\: terms\: is\: the\: same\: and\: equal\: to}d=-7\mathrm{The\: first\: element\: of\: the\: sequence\: is}a_1=-10a_n=a_1+\mleft(n-1\mright)d\mathrm{Therefore,\: the\: }n\mathrm{th\: term\: is\: computed\: by}\:d=-7,\: a_n=-7\mleft(n-1\mright)-10\mathrm{Refine}d=-7,\: a_n=-7n-3

Hence, the arithmetic sequence is as follows;

a_n=-7\mleft(n-1\mright)-10

The appropiate option is OPTION C
