Answer 1

$a_n=4-3(n-1)\\\\n\in\mathbb{N^+}\\\\Answer:\ \text{All integers where}\ n\geq1$

Answer 2

Answer:

All integers where n ≥ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $a_n = 4 - 3(n - 1)$

To find: Domain for n

Solution:

Arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant. Difference here means the second minus the first.

In arithmetic sequence, $a_n=a+(n-1)d$

where a is first term.

d is common difference.

n is number of terms which belongs to natural numbers

And according to the definition of Arithmetic sequence n starts with 1

And we also know that natural number starts with 1

Now, in given sequence  for nth term : $a_n = 4 - 3(n - 1)$

The domain for n is All integers where n ≥ 1
