Logical Group Verification: Determining Mathematical Truth Values

Mark the group that maintains the veracity.

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

• Step 1: Identify the type of sequence for each option.
• Step 2: Apply the pattern to see if it holds throughout the group.

Now, let's analyze each choice:

Option 1: $10, 4, 3, 2, 1, 3$
The differences between each consecutive term are: $4 - 10 = -6$, $3 - 4 = -1$, $2 - 3 = -1$, $1 - 2 = -1$, $3 - 1 = 2$.
These differences are not consistent, indicating no consistent pattern. Thus, this is not an arithmetic sequence.

Option 2: $62, 58, 54, 50, 46, 42$
The differences between each consecutive term are: $58 - 62 = -4$, $54 - 58 = -4$, $50 - 54 = -4$, $46 - 50 = -4$, $42 - 46 = -4$.
These differences are all consistent, indicating an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of $-4$.

Option 3: $13, 9, 10, 10, 10, 1$
The differences between each consecutive term are: $9 - 13 = -4$, $10 - 9 = 1$, $10 - 10 = 0$, $10 - 10 = 0$, $1 - 10 = -9$.
These differences are not consistent, indicating no consistent pattern.

Option 4: $230, 200, 130, 100, 30, 26$
The differences between each consecutive term are: $200 - 230 = -30$, $130 - 200 = -70$, $100 - 130 = -30$, $30 - 100 = -70$, $26 - 30 = -4$.
These differences are not consistent, indicating no consistent pattern.

Therefore, the correct group that maintains the veracity as an arithmetic sequence is with a common difference of -4:

62, 58, 54, 50, 46, 42
