Question

What is the common difference for the arithmetic sequence?

14,8,2,−4,−10,

Answer 1

-6

Explanation:

`a_(2) -a_(1)` = common difference

With the sequence 14, 8, 2, -4, -10,

14 would be
`a_(1)` and 8 would be
`a_(2)`

so

8 - 14 = -6

And that's that. Hope this helped

Answer 2

The answer is 6.

14 - 6 = 8
8 - 6 = 2
2 - 6 = -4
-4 - 6 = -10

Hope this helps.
