Question

An = n2- 5

A) {1, -4, 4, 11, 116...}
B) {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...}
C) { -4, 11, 116, 13451,...}
D) { -4, -1, 4, 11, 20,...}

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

if to substitute values of n=1;2;3;4;5 into

`a_n=n^2-5`

then a₁=-4; a₂=-1; a₃=4; a₄=11; a₅=20.

It means the answer {-4, -1, 4, 11, 20,...} is correct.
