Given, -1.2, – 3.2, -5.2, -7.2 …
Here, a= Initial value , d= Common Difference
a2 – a1 = (-3.2) – (-1.2) = -2
a3 – a2 = (-5.2) – (-3.2) = -2
a4 – a3 = (-7.2) – (-5.2) = -2
Here common difference is equal.
d = -2 and the given series are in A.P.
The next three terms are-
a5 = – 7.2-2 = -9.2
a6 = – 9.2-2 = – 11.2
a7 = – 11.2-2 = – 13.2
