The pattern of numbers below is an arithmetic sequence: 14, 24, 34, 44, 54, which statement describes the recursive function used to generate the sequence?

There exist the same question that has the following choices.

A. The common difference is 1, so the function is f(n + 1) = f(n) + 1 where f(1) = 14.
B. The common difference is 4, so the function is f(n + 1) = f(n) + 4 where f(1) = 10.
C. The common difference is 10, so the function is f(n + 1) = f(n) + 10 where f(1) = 14.
D. The common difference is 14, so the function is f(n + 1) = f(n) + 14 where f(1) = 10.

The correct answer is letter C. The common difference is 10, so the function is f(n + 1) = f(n) + 10 where f(1) = 14.

Whose mistake? can you give more details to what the question is asking?
