The
Explanation of Solution
Given: The given sequence is-
50, 48, 46, 44, 42 . . .
Concept Used: Arithmetic progression (or A.P) is a type of sequence in which the difference between any term from its succeeding term is a constant, known as the common difference, denoted by d. Thus,
Hence, any A.P. whose first term is a is of the form-
In general, the
Calculations: The given sequence is-
50, 48, 46, 44, 42 . . .
Here,
48 − 50 =
46 − 48 =
44 − 46 =
This shows that the difference between two consecutive terms is a constant. Hence the given sequence is an arithmetic progression whose first term is 50 and common difference is
Therefore, the
Thus the required
