Question

Which of the following is the general form of the arithmetic progression with the first term as a and the common difference as d

• A. $a,a-d,a+2d,a-3d,...$
• B. $a,a+d,a+2d,a+3d,...$
• C. $a,a-d,a-2d,a-3d,...$
• D. $a,a+2d,a+4d,a+6d,...$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $a,a+d,a+2d,a+3d,...$

The general form of an arithmetic progression is given by $a,a+d,a+2d,a+3d,...$ where a is the first term and d is the common difference. Thus the correct answer is '$b$'.
