Answer:

\large\boxed{a_n=3n-10}

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence.

-4-(-7)=-4+7=3\\-1-(-4)=-1+4=3\\2-(-1)=2+1=3\\5-2=3

The difference is constant.

The explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Substitute:

a_1=-7,\ d=3

a_n=-7+(n-1)(3)          <em>use distributive property</em>

a_n=-7+3n-3\\\\a_n=3n+(-7-3)\\\\a_n=3n-10
