Respuesta :

The answer is -7....

Answer: -7

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The common difference of an Arithmetic progression is the difference between any two consecutive terms.

i.e. for sequence [tex]a_1, a_2, a_3 ,.....[/tex]

Common difference = [tex]d=a_2-a_1=a_3-a_2=a_4-a_4[/tex]

The given sequence : 56, 49, 42, 35, ...

Then , Common difference =[tex]49-56=-7[/tex]

Hence, the  common difference for the given sequence. =-7
