Answer:

C) an = 2000 + 6n

Explanation:

If n being the sequence of natural number rows e.g. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and so on...

then by placing the value of n for each row we can find the said sequence as follows:

For Row 1:

an = 2000 + 6(0) = 2000

For Row 2:

an = 2000 + 6(1) = 2006

For Row 3:

an = 2000 + 6(2) = 2012

For Row 4:

an = 2000 + 6(3) = 2018

and so on......
