    Correct Answer
    -3, -10, -17
    Explanation
    The arithmetic sequence starts with -3 and each term is obtained by subtracting 7 from the previous term. Therefore, the next term would be -3 - 7 = -10, and the term after that would be -10 - 7 = -17.

    Rate this question:

    Correct Answer
    -2, -8, -14
    Explanation
    The given arithmetic sequence starts with -2 and each subsequent term is obtained by subtracting 6 from the previous term. Therefore, the second term is -2 - 6 = -8, and the third term is -8 - 6 = -14.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 
    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5) - ProProfs

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5)

    Correct Answer
    -1, -6, -11
    Explanation
    The first term of the arithmetic sequence is -1. To find the second term, we subtract the common difference (-5) from the first term: -1 - (-5) = -1 + 5 = 4. To find the third term, we again subtract the common difference from the second term: 4 - (-5) = 4 + 5 = 9. Therefore, the first three terms of the arithmetic sequence are -1, 4, and 9.

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 
    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5) - ProProfs

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5)

    Correct Answer
    3, 12, 21
    Explanation
    The first term of the arithmetic sequence is 3. The common difference between each term is 9 (12 - 3 = 9). To find the second term, we add the common difference to the first term: 3 + 9 = 12. To find the third term, we again add the common difference to the second term: 12 + 9 = 21. Therefore, the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence are 3, 12, and 21.

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5)

    Correct Answer
    4, 12, 20
    Explanation
    The given sequence starts with 4 and each term increases by 8. So, the next term would be 4 + 8 = 12. Following the same pattern, the next term would be 12 + 8 = 20. Therefore, the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence are 4, 12, and 20.

    Rate this question:

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5) - ProProfs

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5)

    Correct Answer
    -1, -10, -19
    Explanation
    The given arithmetic sequence starts with -1 and each subsequent term is obtained by subtracting 9 from the previous term. Therefore, the second term is -1 - 9 = -10, and the third term is -10 - 9 = -19.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 
    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5) - ProProfs

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5)

    Correct Answer
    -3, -5, -7
    Explanation
    The first three terms of this arithmetic sequence are -3, -5, and -7. In an arithmetic sequence, each term is obtained by adding a constant difference to the previous term. In this case, the constant difference is -2, as each term is 2 less than the previous term. Starting with -3, we subtract 2 to get -5, and then subtract 2 again to get -7. Therefore, the first three terms of the sequence are -3, -5, and -7.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 
    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5) - ProProfs

    What are the first three terms of this arithmetic sequence? (comma/space separated ie. 1, 3, 5)

    Correct Answer
    -2, -5, -8
    Explanation
    The first term of the arithmetic sequence is -2. To find the next term, we subtract the common difference, which is 3, from the previous term. So, -2 - 3 = -5. Continuing this pattern, we subtract 3 from -5 to get the third term, which is -8. Therefore, the first three terms of the arithmetic sequence are -2, -5, -8.
