whats the sequence,common difference or common ratio and the next three terms of the sequence of 10,18,26,34
What is the difference between each of these numbers?
To find the sequence, common difference (for an arithmetic sequence) or common ratio (for a geometric sequence), and the next three terms of the given sequence 10, 18, 26, 34, we need to analyze the pattern.
Observing the given sequence, we can see that each successive term differs by 8. Therefore, the common difference is 8.
The sequence can be defined as an arithmetic sequence with a first term of 10 and a common difference of 8.
To find the next three terms, we need to add the common difference (8) successively to the last term of the given sequence.
Next term: 34 + 8 = 42
Second-next term: 42 + 8 = 50
Third-next term: 50 + 8 = 58
Hence, the next three terms of the sequence are 42, 50, and 58.
