Write an Expression for the Apparent Nth Term of the Sequence

Multiple Choice

Write an expression for the apparent nth term of the sequence. (Assume that n begins with 1.) $$- 5 - \frac { 2 } { 1 } , - 5 - \frac { 2 } { 2 } , - 5 - \frac { 2 } { 3 } , - 5 - \frac { 2 } { 4 } , - 5 - \frac { 2 } { 5 } ,$$

A) $a _ { n } = - 5 - \frac { n } { 2 }$
B) $a _ { n } = 2 - \frac { - 5 } { n }$
C) $a _ { n } = 2 - \frac { n } { - 5 }$
D) $a _ { n } = - 5 - \frac { 2 } { n }$
E) $a _ { n } = - 5 - \frac { 2 } { n + 1 }$
