a)the sequence that begins with 2 and in which each successive term is more than the preceding term.
\n" ); document.write( "I think there should be a number before \"more than the preceding term.\"
\n" ); document.write( "If the problem said \"3 more than the preceding term,\" the answer would be
\n" ); document.write( "\"2\" , \"5\" , \"8\" , \"11\" , \"14\" , \"17\" , \"20\" , \"23\" , \"26\" , \"29\" .
\n" ); document.write( "If it just says \"more than the preceding term,\" there are infinite possibilities.
\n" ); document.write( "2, 2.001, 5, 5.2, 6, 6.02, 10, 11, 14, 20 would be an option.
\n" ); document.write( "2, 100, 1000, 10000, 20000, 50000, 50001, 60000, 70000, 80000 would be another option.
\n" ); document.write( "There would be an infinite number of other answers.
