Match the following explicit rules to the sequence they each describe:

• 4, 17, 30, 43, ...

• f(n) = -4 - 17(n-1)

• 17, 13, 9, 5, ...

• f(n)= 13 + 4(n-1)

• -4, -21, -38, -55, ...

• f(n)= 17 - 4(n-1)

• 13, 17, 21, 25, ...

• f(n)= 4 + 13(n-1)

Answer explanation

Remember... An explicit rule is:

"First Term Common Difference (n-1) DONE"
