answer : an = 6 - n

hope this helps :)

[tex]T_{n}[/tex] = 6 - n is the explicit formula for the sequence.

What is an arithmatic sequence?

A sequence of numbers which increases or decreases by a constant amount each term is called an arithmatic sequence.

  • That common amount (term) is called common difference, which can be calculated by subtracting a term from its next term.

How to find the explicit formula for the given sequence?

The given sequence is 5,4,3,2,1.

  • This is an arithmatic sequence with common difference -1.

We can find the explicit formula by finding the nth term of this series.

  • We know that for an arithmatic sequence, we can find the nth term from the formula,

              [tex]T_{n} = a+(n-1)d[/tex]

Where,    

                     [tex]T_{n}[/tex] is the nth term of the arithmatic sequence,

                     a is the first term of the arithmatic sequence,

                     d is the common difference

Comparing with the given sequence,

     a = 5

     d = -1

∴[tex]T_{n}[/tex] = 5 + (n -1)(-1)

         = 6 - n

So, the explicit formula   is  [tex]T_{n}[/tex] = 6 - n
