Answer:
= 5n - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is
9 - 4 = 14 - 9 = 19 - 14 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 4 and d = 5 , then
= 4 + 5(n - 1) = 4 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 1
