To work out the equation of a sequence, you should first look at the differences in the sequence. In this case, the differences between the numbers are -2, -2, -2.

Thus the equation for the sequence is x-2n

To work out x, you need to find what the "0th term" would be, or the term that would come before 4. In this case, it would be 4+2=6. Therefore, the equation for the nth term is 6-2n
