I think the Honda and Dodge have the same ratio. If you do the math, the ratio will come out to (12,1) or 12 for both types of cars.
The common difference if there is one is the constant difference that occurs between any term and the term before it.... in this case:
There is no common difference,
dx=18,20,16,18 the difference or velocity is not constant...
d2x=2, -4,2 the acceleration is not constant...
d3x=-6,6 the thrust is not constant
Now we might be tempted to say that:
d4x=12 and say that that is constant and we COULD make a quartic equation fit all the data points, but without further data points in the sequence there is no mathematical proof that the quartic equation would produce accurate data points outside of the range given...
And solving a system of five equations for five unknowns is tedious for such a problem...a^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e=y

Answer: 155 inches</h3>
This is equivalent to approximately 12.917 feet.
===================================================
Work Shown:
(10 inches)/(2 days) = (x inches)/(31 days)
10/2 = x/31
10*31 = 2*x ... cross multiply
310 = 2x
2x = 310
x = 310/2
x = 155
Keep in mind that this water is being drained on a fairly continuous basis. This means that not all of the water is sticking around (we'd hope not anyway) at the same moment in time.
Note: 155 inches = 155/12 = 12.917 feet approximately.
--------------------------
Alternative method:
If the town got 10 inches in 2 days, this means it rains at a unit rate of 10/2 = 5 inches per day.
Multiply that by 31 days and we get 5*31 = 155 inches of total rain.
