What type of sequence has a constant term added to each term to generate the next term?

we know that

In an Arithmetic Sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant

The constant term added to each term to generate the next term is called common difference

We can write an Arithmetic Sequence as a rule:

xn = a1 + d(n−1)

where

a1 is the first term

d is the "common difference" between terms

n is the numbers of terms

therefore

the answer is

Arithmetic Sequence

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
