Following are APs or not? If they form an A.P. find the common difference d and write three more terms: 

`-1/2, -1/2, -1/2, -1/2` ....

योग

उत्तर

`-1/2, -1/2, -1/2, -1/2 ....`

Here,

a2 - a1 = `(-1/2) - (-1/2) = 0`

a3 - a2 = `(-1/2) - (-1/2) = 0`

a4 - a3 = `(-1/2) - (-1/2) = 0`

⇒ an+1 - an is same every time.

Therefore, d = 0 and the given numbers are in A.P.

Three more terms are

a5 = `(-1/2) - 0 = -1/2`

a6 = `(-1/2) - 0 = -1/2`

a7 = `(-1/2) - 0 = -1/2`
