Answer:

Sequence is not an arithmetic sequence.

Explanation:

The given sequence is given as 17, 22, 33, 46. we have to find whether the given sequence is arithmetic.

Difference between 1st and 2nd term = 22 - 17 = 5

Difference between 2nd and 3rd = 33 - 22 = 11

Difference between 3rd and 4th = 46 - 33 = 13

So difference between each term is not same which shows that the given sequence is not an arithmetic.
