6. Is the sequence arithmetic? If so, identify the common difference.
15, 22, 35, 46, … (1 point)
yes; 7
yes; –7
no
yes; 13
Answer is no
46-35 = 13
35-22 = 11
22-15 = 7
There is no pattern, therefore, it cannot be arithmetic.
Post the rest please
increase from 15 to 22 = 7
increase from 22 to 35 = 13 , so not the same common difference
I guess not!
To determine if a sequence is arithmetic, you need to check if there is a common difference between consecutive terms. In an arithmetic sequence, each term is obtained by adding or subtracting the same value from the previous term.
To find the common difference in the sequence 15, 22, 35, 46, ..., you can subtract each term from its previous term.
22 - 15 = 7
35 - 22 = 13
46 - 35 = 11
Since the differences between consecutive terms are not the same, this sequence is not arithmetic. Therefore, the correct answer is "no".
