Answer:
Probably 5.5 not to be mean....
could've at least smile.
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence: aₙ = a₁ + d(n - 1)
{d = common difference}
a₁ = 5
a₄ = 5 + d(4 - 1)
-4 = 5 + 3d
-4 - 5 = 3d
3d = -9
d = -3
Therefore;
aₙ = 5 + (-3)(n - 1)
aₙ = -3n + 8
Check: a₁₀ = 5 + (-3)(10 - 1) = 5 - 27 = - 22
