&lt;b&gt;Given = nth term of AP is in linear expression in n.<br /><br />Let the two variables be a and b<br /><br />So, nth term = an + b<br /><br />=&gt; an = an + b<br /><br />For 1st term,<br /><br />a1 = a + b<br /><br />For 2nd term<br /><br />a2 = 2a + b<br /><br />For 3rd term<br /><br />a3 = 3a + b<br /><br />and so on....<br /><br />Now, for a sequence of numbers to be an AP, there must be a common difference.<br /><br />So, to satisfy the condition of AP,<br /><br />a3 - a2 = a2 - a1 = d (common difference)<br /><br />=&gt; (3a + b) - (2a + b) = (2a + b) - (a + b)<br /><br />=&gt; a = a<br /><br />Since d = a, this sequence or progression is an AP.
