Select one:

D: A(n) = 6n + 2

Answer 1

Answer 2

Answer:

D: A(n) = 6n + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A is incorrect because: A(1)= 6(1)-8 is equal to -2 not 8

B is incorrect because: A(1)= 6(1)+14 is equal to 20 not 8

C is incorrect because: A(2)= 8(2) is equal to 16 not 14

D is correct because: A(1)= 6(1)+2 is equal to 8 which is correct,

A(2)=6(2)+2 is equal to 14 which is correct,

A(3)=6(3)+2 is equal to 20 which is also correct

Hope this helps
