Final answer:

The sequence generated by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) - 2 for f(1) = 10 is 8, 18, 28, 38, 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence generated by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) - 2, where f(1) = 10, is:

C. 8, 18, 28, 38, 48

To generate the sequence, start with the given f(1) = 10. Then, use the recursive formula f(n + 1) = f(n) - 2 to find the next terms. So, f(2) = f(1) - 2 = 10 - 2 = 8, f(3) = f(2) - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6, and so on, until you reach the desired number of terms.
