The exercise below has to do with arithmetic progressions and or arithmetic sequence.

<h3>What is an Arithmetic Progression?</h3>

An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers where the difference between each consecutive term remains constant as the sequence progresses.

The next three terms  and the rule for finding the <em>nth </em>term in each sequence is given as follows:

A) 1.1,4,9,16,25,36.

The rule for finding the <em>nth </em>term: square each term in the arithmetic series 1², 2², 3², 4², ....nth term = n², etc to get the present term in the sequence.

That is:

1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36  =   1² 2² 3² 4² 5² 6²  

To get the next three terms, we say:

= 7², 8² , 9² =  49, 64, 81

hence, new number sequence  1 , 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81.

B) 3, 5, 7, 9,

The rule for finding the nth term here is the Rule for finding the <em>nth </em>term: 2n + 1.

Hence:

3 = 2 (1) + 1 = 3

5 = 2 (2) + 1 = 5

7 = 2 (3) + 1 = 7

9 = 2 (4) + 1 = 9

Therefore the next three terms in the sequence will be arrived at as follows:

2(5) +1 = 10 + 1 = 11

2(6) + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

2(7) + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15  

The updated number sequence is 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15.

C) 20, 16, 12, 8. The next three terms is gotten using the rule (20n-4n). That is:

20 - 4 = 16 =   [20 - 4(1) ]      

16 - 4 = 12  =   [20 - 4(2)]

12 - 4 = 8    =  [20 -  4(3)]. Thus the next three terms are:

[20 -  4(4)] = 4

[20 -  4(5)] = 0

[20 -  4(6)] = -4

Hence the updated number sequence is:
20, 16, 12, 8, 4, 0, -4
