Answer:

A. an = 5 + (n - 1)(-4)

Explanation:

The explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence has the form

an = a1 + (n-1)d

Where a1 is the first term and d is a common difference.

Now, the recursive formula is

a1 = 5

an = a(n-1) - 4

So, we know that a1 = 4 and d = -4 because the common difference is the difference between two consecutive values.

Then, the explicit formula is

an = 5 + (n - 1)(-4)

So, the answer is A
