The common difference is the difference between consecutive terms in the sequence. In this case, the common difference is 5. (Option 3: 5)

The initial term, also known as the first term, is the value of the sequence when n is equal to 1. In this case, the initial term is -8. (Option 1: -8)

The formula is solving for the nth term in the sequence. (Option 4: 4)

In place of the n, the variable that represents the position in the sequence, there should be a specific value. It could be any positive integer that corresponds to a term in the sequence. (None of the given answer choices)
