what is the common difference of a+1,a+2,a+3... and what is its algebraic form
Answers
IF;
1, a+1=0 , a=(-1)
2, a+2=0 , a=(-2)
3, a+3 =0 ,a =(-3)
common difference :
The value of (a) in each eq^ is different
and value of (a) depends up on the
constant on that equation .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
a+1,a+2,a+3...
To find :-
What is the common difference of a+1,a+2,a+3... and what is its algebraic form ?
Solution :-
Given sequence is a+1,a+2,a+3...
First term = a+1
Common difference = (a+2)-(a+1)
=> d = a+2-a-1
=> d = 1
and
d = (a+3)-(a+2)
=> d = a+3-a-2
=> d = 1
Common difference = 1
Since the common difference is same throughout the sequence.
So It is an Arithmetic Progression.
We know that
The nth term of an AP = an = a+(n-1)d
The nth term of the given AP
=> an = (a+1)+(n-1)(1)
=> an = a+1+n-1
=> an = a+n+(1-1)
=> an = a+n
Answer:-
The common difference of the given AP = 1
The algebraic form of the given AP is a+n
Used formulae:-
The nth term of an AP = an = a+(n-1)d
