The first five terms of a sequence are 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. what is the explicit formula for the sequence?
a.
b.
c.
d.

The explicit formula for the sequence is:

                Option: C

               C.

We are given first five terms of a sequence as:

      5,4,3,2,1

i.e. if represent the nth term of a sequence then we have:

Hence, the rule that follows for the terms of the sequence is:

       C.

Since when n=1 we have:

when n=2 we have:

when n=3 we have:

when n=4 we have:

when n=5 we have:
