Given that the first term of an arithmetic sequence is 50 and the common difference is -5, what is the explicit formula that represents
this sequence? What would the 64th term of this sequence be?
O F a, = -5 (n - 1) + 50 and a64 = -265
O G. a, = 50 (n – 1) – 5 and a64 = -265
O H an = -5 (n – 1) + 50 and a64 = 3145
O J. a, = 50 (n - 1) – 5 and ag4 = 3145
