3 answers

The explicit formula for the sequence −1, 0, 1, 2, 3, . . . is given by:

𝑎𝑛 = 𝑛 - 1

where 𝑎𝑛 represents the 𝑛th term of the sequence.
are you sure
Apologies for the confusion. The explicit formula for the given sequence −1, 0, 1, 2, 3, . . . is:

𝑎𝑛 = 𝑛 - 1

This formula suggests that each term in the sequence is one less than its corresponding position in the sequence, starting from 1.
