Table 3 represents an arithmetic sequence.
Solution:
To find which table represents an arithmetic sequence:
In arithmetic sequence difference of each term is equal.
Table 1:
= –12 – (–6)
d = –6
= –24 – (–12)
d = –12
Here differences are not equal.
So table 1 not represents an arithmetic sequence.
Table 2:
= 9 – 7
d = 2
= 13 – 9
d = 4
Here differences are not equal.
So table 2 not represents an arithmetic sequence.
Table 3:
= 7.3 – 8.7
d = –1.4
= 5.9 – 7.3
d = –1.4
= 4.5 – 5.9
d = –1.4
= 3.1 – 4.5
d = –1.4
Here differences are equal.
So table 3 represents an arithmetic sequence.
