 Question 639074: 26. The first five terms of a linear sequence are given below. What is the next term of the sequence? 13, 18, 23, 28, 38, ____ There is a difference of 5 between every number, I got 38, but answers are : A. 28 B. 10 C. 6 D. 32 Found 2 solutions by solver91311, Edwin McCravy:Answer by solver91311(16868)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! 13, 18, 23, 28, 38 is NOT a linear sequence. 13, 18, 23, 28 is a linear sequence, but your next term, 38, is a difference of 10, not 5. Furthermore, even if you had given the correct 5th term to make it linear, NONE of the given answers are correct for the 6th term. John My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it Answer by Edwin McCravy(8880)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!I agree with the other tutor. This is not a linear sequence. Sometimes there are typos in materials. Point it out to your teacher. Edwin
