Respuesta :

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of integers with its adjacent terms differing with one common difference. The correct option is B.

What is an arithmetic sequence?

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of integers with its adjacent terms differing with one common difference.

The explicit formula for any arithmetic series is given by the formula,

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

where d is the difference and a₁ is the first term of the sequence.

Given  A₁=5 and An= A₍ₙ₋₁₎-4, therefore we can write,

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

Aₙ= 5+(n-1)(-4)

Hence, the correct option is B.
