What is the common difference between the elements of the arithmetic sequence below? –18, –22.5, –27, –31.5, –36

Answers

Answer
Common difference = -4.5

Explanation.
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which the next term is found by adding a constant to the current term. This constant is called the common difference.
If a, b, c, d, e, ….is an arithmetic sequence, then the common difference will be,
Common difference = b-a=c-b=d-c=e-d…..
Now the question above common difference is;
Common difference = (-22.5)-(-14)=-4.5 

Answer:

-4.5

4 brothers share 3 pizzas equally.
How much of a pizza does each brother get ?

Answers

4 brothers /3 pizzas  = 3/4 each

4 x 3/4 = 12/4 
12/4 = 3 pizzas
3/4. No matter how many pizzas there are, if we divided each pizza to 4 slices, each one gets one slice from each pizza, that is 1/4 of a pizza for each brother. Since there are 3 slices of pizza, simply multiply 3*1/4=3/4.
