Which (a_n) rule is correct for (8,18,28,38,\ldots)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(a_n=10n-2\)

This is an arithmetic sequence with first term \(a_1=8\) and common difference \(d=18-8=10\). Hence, \(a_n=a_1+(n-1)d=8+(n-1)10=10n-2\). Therefore, option A is correct. In option B, substituting \(n=1\) gives the first term as \(18\), not \(8\). Exam tip: Test a proposed nth-term rule by substituting \(n=1\) and \(n=2\) to check the first two terms.
