Answer:
only Katie is right
Step-by-step explanation:
first, find the nth rule using the equation n = a + (n - 1)d
a = first term (here, it's 22)
n = the position of a term
d = the constant difference between each term (here, it's -5 since each term reduces by 5)
put these in and then simplify:
n = a + (n - 1)d
n = 22 + (n - 1)(-5)
n = 22 - 5n + 5
n = -5n + 27
this can be rewritten as n = 27 - 5n, which means therefore that only Katie is right. hope this helps!
