\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}

\textbf{Let's see if the sequence is Arithmetic :}

\textsf{If the difference between successive terms is } \textsf{equal then, the terms are in AP}

  • \textsf{-34 - (-29) = -5 }

  • \textsf{-39 - (-34) = -5 }

\textsf{Since the common difference is same, } \textsf{we can infer that it's an Arithmetic progression} \textsf{with common difference of -5}

Sequence: -29, -34, -39, -44, -49, ...

<u>First we need to identify the </u><u>terms</u>:

  • 1st term = -29
  • 2nd term = -34
  • 3rd term =  -39
  • 4th term = -44
  • 5th term  = -49

If the sequence is arithmetic, \boxed{\sf \bold{second \ term = \dfrac{first \  term+third \ term}{2} }}

If the sequence is geometric, \boxed{\sf \bold{second \ term = \sqrt{first \ term \ x  \ third \ term} }}

=======================================

Check for arithmetic

\rightarrow \sf -34 = \sf \dfrac{-29 +(-39)}{2}

\rightarrow \sf -34 = \sf \dfrac{-68}{2}

\rightarrow \sf -34 = -34       [<u>Hence it's arithmetic series</u>]

To find common difference. we have to think of how to go to next term.

first term: -29

<u>to go the second term, subtract by -5</u>

-29 -5 = -34, second term

-34 - 5 = -39, third term

Hence, common difference: <u>-5</u>

<u>Solutions</u>:

Arithmetic Sequence

Common Difference: -<u>5</u>
