According to the recursive formula,

[tex]a_2=a_1+4[/tex]

[tex]a_3=a_2+4=(a_1+4)+4=a_1+2\cdot4[/tex]

[tex]a_4=a_3+4=a_2+2\cdot4=a_1+3\cdot4[/tex]

and so on, with the general formula

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)\cdot4[/tex]

Then

[tex]a_n=-2+4(n-1)=4n-6[/tex]

and the answer is C.

Answer:

C. an = 4n -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Only one of the offered choices gives a1=-2 for n=1.

___

The recursive formula tells you ...

a2 -a1 = 4

The only choices that increase by 4 when n increases by 1 are choices C and D. Of these, choice D gives a1=4·1+6 = 10 ≠ -2.

Choice C gives a1 = 4·1 -6 = -2, as required.
