ANSWER

The general term of the sequence is.

t_n= 11 - 13(n - 1)

The correct answer is C.

EXPLANATION
The recursive definition of the sequence is given by

t_n=t_{n-1}-13
where
t_1=11

and
n > 1.

When we plug in
n = 2
into the recursive definition, we obtain,

t_2=t_{2-1}-13


\Rightarrow t_2=t_{1}-13

\Rightarrow \: t_2=11-13

t_2= - 2

The Commons difference is
d = - 2 - 11 = - 13

The general term is given by the formula,

t_n= t_1 + (n - 1)d

We substitute the above values to obtain,

t_n= 11 + (n - 1)( - 13)

This implies that,

t_n= 11 - 13(n - 1)

where,
n\in N

An irrational number cannot be expressed as a ratio between two numbers and it cannot be written as a simple fraction because there is not a finite number of numbers when written as a decimal. Instead, the numbers in the decimal would go on forever, without repeating.
