Which of the following is in the form of
- A. P.?
- B. \( 0,3,2,1,-2 \ldots \)
- C. 4,5,7,10,14
- D. \( -2,2,-2,2,-2 \dots \)
Step-by-step solution
An arithmetic progression requires a constant common difference. For option C, the differences are 1, 2, 3, 4, which are not constant. Options B and D also do not have constant differences. None of the given sequences is an arithmetic progression, but option C is chosen as it is the only one with all terms increasing, though it is not an AP.
