Question

Refer to the sequence 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, 36. Explain why the terms in the sequence will continue to alternate between even and odd numbers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference of this arithmetic sequence is 5. Adding 5 to an even number gives an odd number, and vice versa. Hence the "parity" of the terms in the sequence must alternate between odd and even.
