(a) If the sequence = p , 5p-8 and 3p+8 is an arithmetic sequence then the difference between successive terms must be constant.e.g. (5p-8)-(p) = (3p+8)-(5p-8)=> 4p-8 = -2p+16 => 6p = 24 => p=24/...

The answer should reach a judgement on how accurate it is to say that Stalin’s use of terror in the 1930s was fundamentally similar to Lenin’s use of terror in the years 1918–24. The introduction might ou...

We start off by constructing simultaneous equations as there are two variables - a and d - that we do not know. We use the formula:a_n = a + (n-1)di) 11.1 = a + 9dii) 7.1 = a + 49d
