Answer:
sequence is not arithmetic
Explanation:
Given:
8,5, 3, 2,
above is not arithmetic sequence
As there is constant difference in consecutive terms in a an arithmetic sequence given by:
d=an- an-1
where
d is common difference
an=nth term
an-1=nth - 1 term
Given sequence
8,5, 3, 2,
d=5-8 = -3
d-3-5=-2
as the difference is not common above sequence is not arithmetic!
