Answer:
The explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence is given by:
......[1]
where,
is the first term
n is the number of terms and
d is the common difference for two consecutive terms.
As per the statement:
A recursive rule for an arithmetic sequence is:


The recursive formula for the arithmetic sequence is given by:

then;
On comparing we get;
d = -3
Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

⇒
Therefore, the explicit rule for this sequence is, 
The answer is the furthest to the right.
Answer:
Divergent
Step-by-step explanation:
Given series has general term as

n+1 th term =
WE have to check whether this series converges or diverges
Let us use ratio test
Ratio of n+1 th term to nth term
=
by dividing numerator and denominator by n square
Take limits as n tends to infinity
The ratio tends to 2
Since ratio >2, the series diverges
