    11+2n

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Arithmetic sequence=a + (n-1) d

    a=first number

    n=nth term

    d=difference

    a=9

    n=?

    d=-2

    So let's solve

    9 + (n-1) (-2)

    9 + (2n+2)

    9+2n+2

    Collect like terms

    9+2+2n

    11+2n

    So the nth term is 11+2n
