Question 1110008: The xth, yth, and zth terms of a sequence are X,Y,Z respectively. Show that if the sequence is arithmetic then X(y-z) + Y(z-x) + Z(x-y)=0.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let it be that in an arithmetic sequence = first term of the arithmetic sequence = common difference of the arithmetic sequence.
Then, if the xth, yth, and zth terms of athat sequence are X,Y,Z respectively, , , and .
