Answer: An = 114 + (n - 1)-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Per 5 weeks there is reduction of 30 patients. Divide by the common factor (5) and you see that per 1 week, there is a reduction of 6 patients. Going back in time to see what the first term was, you can create a explicit formula for this function.
