The first three terms of an arithmetic sequence are as follows.

4, 1, - 2

Find the next two terms of this sequence.

4,1, - 2, 10

xs?

Continue

- 5, - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference d between consecutive terms is

d = 1 - 4 = - 2 - 1 = - 3

To obtain a term in the sequence subtract 3 from the previous term, that is

- 2 - 3 = - 5

- 5 - 3 = - 8

The next 2 terms in the sequence are - 5 and - 8
