Expert Solution
Step 1

we have to find which sequence has a common difference of 3.

A) f(n)=4+3(n-1)       f(n)=4+3n-3=3n+1put n=0   ,  f(0)=3(0)+1=1put n=1   ,  f(1)=3(1)+1=4put n=2,     f(2)=3(2)+1=6+1=7..so  on.the sequence is 1,4,7,.......the common difference is 4-1=3  ,  7-4=3 ..... so onthis sequence has a common difference is 3.
