Answer:

or

Step-by-step explanation:
-7,-3,1,5,... is a arithmetic sequence.
Arithmetic sequences have a common difference. That is, it is going up by 4 each time.
When you see arithmetic sequence, you should think linear equation.
The point-slope form of a line is
.
m is the common difference, the slope.
Any they are using the point at x=1 in the point slope form. So they are using (1,-7).
So let's put this into our point-slope form:


Subtract 7 on both sides:

So your answer is
