Answer:
B.35
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is
14, ,56,....
14 , x , 56
Think of it as 14 + d = x
x+ d = 56
d is the common difference
We now have 2 equations and 2 unknowns
Substitute the first equation in for x into the second equation
x+d =56
(14+d) +d = 56
Combine like terms
14 + 2d = 56
Subtract 14 from each side
14-14 + 2d = 56-14
2d = 42
Divide by 2
2d/2 =42/2
d = 21
The common difference is 21
Now we can find x
14 + d = x
14+ 21 = x
35 =x
The unknown term is 35
