Answer:
an = n -27
Step-by-step explanation:
The general term (an) of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula ...
an = a1 + d(n -1)
where a1 is the first term and d is the common difference.
Your sequence has a first term of a1 = -26 and a common difference of d = 1. Putting these values into the formula gives ...
an = -26 + 1(n -1)
This can be simplified to ...
an = n - 27
