Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term is given as (2n + 3)
let n = 1
term 1 = (2*1) + 3
= 5
let n = 2
term 2 = (2*2) + 3
= 7
common difference = term2 - term 1
= 7-5
=2

(2n+3)
put value of n
2*1+3=2+3=5
2*2+3=4+3=7
3*2+3=6+3=9 equation (1)
common difference=
second term - first term
a+d)-(a)
here second term is 7
and first is 5 from equation (1)
7-5=2
hence,common difference is 2
thanks
hope its helpful
