In an Arithmetic Sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant.
In General we could write an arithmetic sequence like this:
{ , , , , ... }
where:
is the term, and
is the difference between the terms (called the "common difference")
you are given: and and you need to find first six terms
so, it is
, , , , , ,
substitute and
, , , , , ,
, , , , ,
you could do it without all that above; simply, if you know first term is and common difference is , means each next term is greater than previous term
so, if first term is , next term is , next term is , and so on
