Answer:

a_{n} = 22 - 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms, that is

8 - 15 = 1 - 8 = - 7

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 15 and d = - 7 , then

a_{n} = 15 - 7(n - 1) = 15 - 7n + 7 = 22 - 7n ← explicit formula
