Arithmetic, common difference is 8
Arithmetic, common difference is 7
To determine whether the sequence is arithmetic, we need to check if there is a constant difference between each consecutive term.
For the given sequence: negative 7, negative 3, 1, 5, ellipsis
The difference between each term is 4.
Since there is a constant difference of 4 between each term, we can conclude that the sequence is arithmetic, and the common difference is 4.
