Question
Write first four terms of the AP, when the first term a = 4 and the common difference d = -3
✓
Answer
a = 4, d = -3
First term = a = 4
Second term = 4 + d = 4 + (-3) = 1
Third term = 1 + d = 1 + (-3) = -2
Fourth term = $- 2 + d = - 2 + ( - 3 ) = - 5$
Hence, four first terms of the AP are 4, 1, -2, -5.
