Max is stacking logs at his campground for firewood. After his first load of logs, he has 8 logs on the stack. After his seventh load of logs, he has 62 logs on the stack. Use sequence notation to represent the arithmetic function.

an = 8 + 6(n − 1)
an = 62 + 6(n − 1)
an = 8 + 9(n − 1)
an = 62 + 9(n − 1)
