see the figure below to better understand the problem

we have that

\begin{gathered} tan55^o=\frac{h}{250}---->\text{ by TOA} \\  \\ solve\text{ for h} \\ h=250*tan55^o \\ h=357.0\text{ ft} \end{gathered}<h2>The answer is 357.0 feet</h2>

<h3>Answer:  an = 6n - 15   (Choice C)</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

This sequence is arithmetic

The first term is a = -9

The common difference is d = 6 since we're adding 6 to each term to get the next one (eg: -3+6 = 3 or 3+6 = 9 or 9+6 = 15)

Plug those values into the arithmetic nth term formula below

an = a + d*(n-1)

an = -9 + 6*(n-1)

an = -9 + 6n-6

an = 6n - 15

--------------

As a check, let's plug in something like n = 1

an = 6n - 15

a1 = 6*1 - 15

a1 = 6 - 15

a1 = -9

We see that the 1st term is -9, which matches the sequence given

Now let's plug in n = 2

an = 6n - 15

a2 = 6*2 - 15

a2 = 12 - 15

a2 = -3

The 2nd term is -3. This also matches.

I'll let you check the other values of n to confirm the answer.
