(c - 3)(2c - 1) is the factored form
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2, -3 , -8 , -13 , - 18 .............
This is an arithmetic sequence.
First term = a = 2
Common difference = Second term - first term
= -3 - 2 = -5
Nth term = a + (n - 1)*d
= 2 + (n - 1)*(-5)
= 2 + n*(-5) - 1 *(-5)
= 2 - 5n + 5
= 7 - 5n
n = 19,
19th term = 7 - 5*19
= 7 - 95
= - 88
n = 21,
21st term = 7 - 5*21
= 7 - 105
= -98
The answer is the third one
