The formula
a(n) = 2 - 5(n-1)
is in the form
a(n) = a1 + d(n-1)
where
a1 = first term = 2
d = -5 = common difference
The first term is carried over to the recursive formula. We start with a1 = 2. The next term after that is found by subtracting 5 from the previous term. So
second term = (first term) - 5
third term = (second term) - 5
and so on
The recursive step would be
a(n) = a(n-1)-5
So that's why the answer is choice C

The rate of change is the same as the slope.
Let's find the slope of function 1 using the Rise Over Run rule.
The rise is 2 and run is 1. So your rate of change is 2/1 or 2 for function 1
Function 2 is a y = mx + b equation, the slope is usually "m" or before the x
y = 1/2x + 7
1/2 is your rate of change for function 2
Example
2^3 4^2
2×2×2=6 4×4=16
All you do is multiply the number by the exponent however many times the exponents is
