उत्तर

The sequence −10, −6, −2, 2, ... is an A.P. Reason d = 4.

Explanation:

The given sequence is  –10, –6, –2, 2, ...

Here,

First term (a) = a1 = –1

Second term = a2 = –6

Third term = a3 = –2

Common difference (d) = a2 – a1 

= –6 – (–10)

= 4

a3 – a2 = –2 – (–6)

= 4

Since, a2 – a1 = a3 – a2

Thus, the given sequence is an A.P.
