The common difference of the arithmetic sequence

We conclude that the common difference of the Arithmetic sequence is: 1/3  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the Arithmetic sequence

1/2, 5/6, 7/6, 3/2, 11/6

We know that an Arithmetic sequence has a constant common difference.

Let us compute the common difference 'd' of all the adjacent terms

The difference between all the adjacent terms is the same and equal

Therefore,

Hence, we conclude that the common difference of the Arithmetic sequence is: 1/3  

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
