\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-2\", \"3\", \"8\", \"13\", \"18\", \"highlight%2863%29\", it must be \"highlight%2823%29\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "as you can see, to get \"3\" you add \"5\" to \"-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "to get \"8\" you add \"5\" to \"3\"
\n" ); document.write( "to get \"13\" you add \"5\" to \"8\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and the difference between each pair of terms is \"d=5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The formula for the general term of an arithmetic sequence is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"a%5Bn%5D+=+a%5B1%5D+%2B+%28n-1%29d\".......since first term is \"a%5B1%5D=-2\" and common difference is \"d=5\", we have\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"a%5Bn%5D+=+-2+%2B+5%28n-1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
