t(n) is a function that calculates how many tyres are required for n trucks. Taking n = 25, t(n) = 8(25) = 200 tyres. The answer is C.

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference between consecutive terms. Taking successive differences:

7-2 = 5
13-7 = 6
20-13 = 7

The common difference is not constant, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Hence the answer is d.

I hope this helps you :)
