Write down an expression for the nth term of the following sequence

5, 11, 17, 23, ...

= 6n - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms in the sequence

d = 11 - 5 = 17 - 11 = 23 - 17 = 6

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

= a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 5 and d = 6 , then

= 5 + 6(n - 1) = 5 + 6n - 6 = 6n - 1

answer

see attachment

explanation

the given function is

this function has y-intercept at

-4 and a slope of 2.

note that, the graph has a positive slope.

the graph that represents this function is the straight line that moves upward from left to right.

the graph touches the y-axis at -4.

the correct choice is the graph shown in the attachment.
