Which function describes the arithmetic sequence shown?
−5, −7, −9, −11, −13, ...

A) ƒ(x) = −3x + 2
B) ƒ(x) = −2x + 3
C) ƒ(x) = −3x − 2
D) ƒ(x) = −2x − 3

f(x)= -2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let the sequence given here is -5, -7, -9, -11, -13

Here the first term (a₁) of sequence is -5

And the common difference between the numbers in the sequence is

d= (-7-(-5)) = -7+5 = -2

Let the number of terms be x

Step 2;

To find the sequence function basic arithmetic sequence formula is

aₙ = a₁ + d( x-1)

Applying the values we get

f(X) = -5 + ((-2)(X-1))

on simplification

f(X) = -5 + (-2X+2)

f(X)= -5+2-2X

f(X)= -3-2X

so the possibilities of the measurement of the side of the triangle are either it is longest side or not the longest side

when it is the longest side

s < 25 + 35s < 60

if it is not the longest side

35 < 25 + s10 < sso 10 < s < 60so the perimeter70 < p < 130

where is the option given
