What is the distance from one number to the next in a sequence of numbers that is represented by a (d) in an arithmetic sequence?

• Common denominator

• Common opposites

• Common domain

• Common difference

Write the recursive formula for 6, 17, 28, 39, 50....

• a_n=a_n-1+11
  a₁=6

• a_n=a_n-1-4
  a₁=6
