Answer: a(n) = 5 - 3n

the sequence has:

a1 = 2

a2 = -1

a3 = -7

.........

we can see that: a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = -3

=> the sequence is a arithmetic sequence

=> the distance between the numbers is d = -3

because this sequence is a arithmetic sequence

=> a(n) = a1 + (n - 1)d = 2 + (n - 1).(-3) = 5 - 3n

The slope of the line below is -4 use the coordinates of the label point to find a point slope equation of the line (4,-9)

zalisa [80]

Point slope form: y1-y2=m(x1-x2)

Given the slope -4 and the set of coordinates (4,-9),

y+9=-4(x-4)

I plugged in the slope and coordinates. Since -9 came after a subtraction sign, I corrected the subtraction to addition, leaving the above point slope form equation.

I hope this helps :)
