The missing part is determine if 3 The following operations

3. The following operations are performed on each term ofan arithmetic sequence. Determi resulting sequence is arithmetic, state the common difference a) A constant Cis added to each term. (5 pts) b Each term is multiplied by anon zero constant C.Spts) c) Each term is squared. (5 pts) In the first two trips baling hay around a large field, a farmer obtains 123 bales and 112 bale ectively. Because each round gets shorter, the farmer estimates that the same pattem will mate the total number of bales made if the framer takes another six trips around the feld.

Solution

Let airthmetic suquence be a, a+d , a+2d , a+3d...... so on with common diffference = d

a) constant C is added:

a+c, a+d+c , a+2d+c , a+3d +c......

common difference = d ( no change)

b) Terms multiplied by a constant C

ac, c(a+d ), c(a+2d) , c(a+3d)......

common difference = d*c = cd

c) Each term is squared

a^2, (a+d)^2 , (a+2d)^2 , (a+3d_)^2

No more an arithmetic sequence

No common difrrenence exists
